Scientific paper

In this paper, new spectrophotometric data are presented for the standards of the Spinrad-Taylor (1969) scanner photometric system. The new data are in the 4040-6180 A wavelength range and are used to construct a calibration of Spinrad-Taylor data to absolute units in this range. In addition, a previously published calibration for wavelengths greater than 6100 A is revised and extended through use of data in the literature. The calibrations, fused into a single whole, and the Spinrad-Taylor data themselves, are tested for systematic error, partly through use of further new spectrophotometry at wavelengths greater than 6100 A; those tests which can currently be made yield generally satisfactory results.
