The STIS team re-derived on-orbit sensitivity curves for the echelle modes for post-servicing mission 4 observations using the standard DA white dwarf G 191-B2B. These new updates relied on the recent CALSPECv11 models, which introduced…
The STIS echelle gratings can be used with a variety of different central wavelength settings. "Secondary" wavelength settings, designed to cover select absorption or emission lines, have not been calibrated as precisely as their primary…
Re-derivation of the sensitivities of all of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) observing modes were required after major updates were introduced to the model atmospheres of the three primary standard stars. The new predicted…
The Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) has measured the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for several stars of types O, B, A, F, and G. These absolute fluxes from the CALSPEC database are fit with a new spectral grid computed…
A collection of spectral energy distributions (SEDs) is available in the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) CALSPEC database that is based on calculated model atmospheres for pure hydrogen white dwarfs (WDs). A much larger set (~100,000) of UV…
High-quality stellar spectra are in great demand now - they are the most important ingredient in the stellar population synthesis to study galaxies and star clusters. Here we describe the procedures to increase the quality of flux…
For the astronomical community analyzing ISO-SWS data, a first point to assess when judging and qualifying the observational data concerns the flux calibration accuracy. Since the calibration process is not straightforward and since a wrong…
The ST-ECF Calibration Enhancement effort for the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) aims to improve data calibration via the application of physical modelling techniques. As part of this effort we have developed a model of the…
Using data derived from the H.E.S.S. Phase 1 telescope system and a Ceilometer facility on site, a method of correcting for changing atmospheric quality based on reconstructed shower parameters is presented. The method was applied to data…
We perform SED fitting analysis on a COSMOS sample covering UV-to-FIR wavelengths with emission lines from the FMOS survey. The sample of 182 objects with H$\alpha$ and [OIII]$\lambda5007$ emission spans over a range of $1.40<\rm{z}<1.68$.…
The Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph has measured the absolute flux for Vega from 0.17-1.01 microns on the HST White Dwarf flux scale. These data are saturated by up to a factor of 80 overexposure but retain linearity to a precision of…
We present here a re-calibration of the photometric systems used in the Pantheon+ sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) including those used for the SH0ES distance-ladder measurement of H$_0$. We utilize the large and uniform sky coverage…
The far-ultraviolet (FUV) flare activity of low-mass stars has become a focus in our understanding of the exoplanet atmospheres and how they evolve. However, direct detection of FUV flares and measurements of their energies and rates are…
We discuss the suite of STIS calibration programs executed during HST Cycle 30, covering the period 2022 Nov 07 through 2023 Nov 05. For each of the 19 current regular calibration programs, we provide brief descriptions of the objectives,…
While the near-infrared wavelength regime is becoming more and more important for astrophysics there is a marked lack of spectrophotometric standard star data that would allow the flux calibration of such data. Furthermore, flux calibrating…
The upcoming Chinese Space Station Telescope (CSST) slitless spectroscopic survey poses a challenge of flux calibration, which requires a large number of flux-standard stars. In this work, we design an uncertainty-aware residual attention…
(Aims) We present a number of improvements to the MILES library and stellar population models. We correct some small errors in the radial velocities of the stars, measure the spectral resolution of the library and models more accurately,…
We have undertaken quantitative analysis of four LMC and SMC O4--9.7 extreme supergiants using far-ultraviolet FUSE, ultraviolet IUE/HSTand optical VLT UVES spectroscopy. Extended, non-LTE model atmospheres that allow for the consistent…
The STIS team monitors the time dependent sensitivity (TDS) of each grating with one from a set of three secondary CALSPEC standard stars: GRW+70D5824, AGK+81D266, and BD+28D4211. Here, we use the three primary CALSPEC White Dwarf standard…
We present a flux calibration scheme for the PACS chopped point-source photometry observing mode based on the photometry of five stellar standard sources. This mode was used for science observations only early in the mission. Later, it was…
