Typical atmospheric extinction corrections for SSO are listed in Table
13, and values for the standard interstellar extinction law
from Rieke & Lebofsky (1985, ApJ, 288, 618) are listed for reference in Table
14. Adopted values for the near-infrared broadband zero
magnitude flux calibration are listed in Table 15. These are
obtained from a 11200 K blackbody normalized to
Å
W cm
m
(Bersanelli, Bouchet, &
Falomo 1991, A&A, 252, 854) giving
where
is flux density in Jy and
is wavelength in
