HYPERCALIBRATION: A PAN-STARRS1-BASED RECALIBRATION OF THE SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY PHOTOMETRY

HYPERCALIBRATION: A PAN-STARRS1-BASED RECALIBRATION OF THE SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY PHOTOMETRY

We present a recalibration of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry with new flat fields and zero points derived from Pan-STARRS1 (PS1). Using PSF photometry of 60 million stars with $16 < r < 20$, we derive a model of amplifier gain and flat-field corrections with per-run RMS residuals …
