Current and Next Generation Survey Filter Conversions with ProSpect

TL;DR

This paper presents comprehensive filter conversion tables for current and future survey facilities, integrated into the ProSpect software, enabling users to compute custom transforms with ongoing updates and community input.

Contribution

It provides an extensive set of filter conversions for survey facilities and demonstrates how to compute custom transforms using the ProSpect software package.

Findings

Includes nearly all useful filter transforms

Provides a flexible approach for user-defined filters

Plans for frequent updates and community collaboration

Abstract

In this work we compute a reasonably comprehensive set of tables for current and next generation survey facility filter conversions. Almost all useful transforms are included with the ProSpect software package described in Robotham et al (2020). Users are free to provide their own filters and compute their own transforms, where the included package examples outline the approach. This arXiv document will be relatively frequently updated, so people are encouraged to get in touch with their suggestions for additional utility (i.e. new filter sets).
