Scientific paper

The photometric reductions and calibrations of the Hipparcos satellite, for both the main mission and the star mapper data, are described. The principles of the Hipparcos and Tycho photometric systems are presented along with their relation to those in ground based photometry. The efficiency of the detection chain as a function of the wavelength of the light is considered. The problems arising with the star mapper chain are included. The following subjects are also included: the scientific aspects of the photometry, the image dissector tube and Tycho data processing algorithms. The simulation results for the main detection chain are given.
