Kickoff meeting of the IAU working group on UV photometry
 

The activity of the IAU Working Group on Ultraviolet Photometry has just begun!

The first video conference took place yesterday, and the main scientific and technological issues that must be addressed were identified. The aim is to define some ultraviolet standard filters for future UV missions during the following months, both broad- and narrow-band.

Currently, the active members of the working group are Ana Inés Gómez de Castro and Noah Brosh, both chairs of the group, Daniela Bettoni, David Valls-Galbaud, and Paul Scowen.
