SCHUSTER, W. J.; PARRAO, L.  and  CONTRERAS, M. E.. Standard stars for the high-velocity and metal-poor project at San Pedro Mártir. Rev. mex. astron. astrofis [online]. 2016, vol.52, n.1, pp.93-111. ISSN 0185-1101.

The main documentation for the primary and secondary standard stars used in the high-velocity and metal-poor stars project is presented. Observations were taken using the Strömgren-Crawford, uvby-Hβ, 6-channel, spectrophotometry equipment with the H.L. Johnson 1.5-m telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional, San Pedro Mártir, between 1987 and 2007. Standard photometric values from the literature are reported for our standard stars, as well as transformed standard values, errors in the instrumental system, the transformation coefficients obtained for the standard system, the transformation errors, and the methods used to obtain such photometric observations and their standard transformations.
