Reference Star Catalog for Night Sky Brightness and Spectral Analysis
Publish Time:2025-11-25 
This dataset is the Customized Multi-band Standard Star Catalog for the Shanghai Astronomy Museum 1-meter Telescope (DOT) Observing System , serving as a core deliverable for the project on Astronomical Detection and Spectral Distribution Analysis of Urban Night Sky Brightness. It was generated using data from the European Space Agency (ESA) Gaia Third Data Release (DR3) , featuring approximately 2.4 million G-band stars brighter than the 12th magnitude across the entire sky. The data utilizes Synthetic Photometry to integrate the low-resolution XP spectra of these stars with the response curves of the DOT system's seven specific filters, with all resulting magnitudes calibrated to the AB magnitude system.
