TL;DR
This paper introduces a method for synthesizing and standardizing X-ray photometric passbands, enabling consistent X-ray photometry across different instruments and missions, exemplified by creating a passband similar to ROSAT PSPC 0.5-2 keV.
Contribution

Findings
Successfully synthesized a passband similar to ROSAT PSPC 0.5-2 keV
Enables consistent X-ray photometry between different instruments
Facilitates comparison of X-ray data across missions
Abstract
I describe a method for synthesizing photometric passbands for use with current and future X-ray instruments. The method permits the standardisation of X-ray passbands and thus X-ray photometry between different instruments and missions. The method is illustrated by synthesizing a passband in the XMM-Newton EPIC pn which is similar to the ROSAT PSPC 0.5-2 keV band.
