In this work we focused on observations of six trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) whose apparent magnitudes are brighter than 20m. We present the results of astrometric and photometric observations of (134340) Pluto, (136108) Haumea, (136472) Makemake, (136199) Eris, (90482) Orcus, and (20000) Varuna obtained at the Kyiv comet station (Code MPC 585) in 2017-2019. For observations we used the 0.7-m (f/4) reflector AZT-8 with FLI PL4710 CCD camera and filters of Johnson-Cousins photometric system. From our images we measured the objects' astrometric positions, calculated apparent magnitudes in the BVRI (mostly R) bands using aperture photometry method, and found absolute magnitudes together with the colour indices in several bands. Analysing our results, we investigate the limitation on the astrometry and photometry of faint objects with the 0.7-m telescope.

The author has for some time at the Stockholm Observatory been occupied in a photometric and spectrophotometric investigation of the central parts of the Norma Cloud of stars (α = 16h19m5, δ = −52°). The plate material has been collected at the Boyden Observatory: the spectral plates have been secured with the ADH telescope combined with objective prism, the photometric plates with the ADH and the 10-inch Metcalf telescopes. The photographic magnitudes and the colour indices are referred to the photometric system of the E-regions, as established by the Cape Observatory.

AbstractSynthetic photometry must be used to accurately define the passbands which characterize a photometric system. On the one hand, the colour indices of the stars must be coherent with their absolute spectrophotometry; on the other hand, direct comparisons of model atmospheres with observations must be carried out without resorting to arbitrary transformations. A systematic evaluation procedure could be applied to various photometric systems.

This is only an informal remark about some difficulties I am worrying about.I have tried to recalibrate the MK system in terms of intrinsic colour (B–V)0and absolute magnitudeMv. The procedures used have been described in a review article by Voigt (Mitt. Astr. Ges.1963, p. 25–35), and the results for stars of the luminosity classes Ia-O,I and II have been given also in Blaauw's article on the calibration of luminosity criteria in vol. III (Basic Astronomical Data, p. 401) ofStars and Stellar Systems.

The Geneva photometric system has been calibrated in terms of [M/H], θeff, Mv in the spectral range F5 to K4. As the spectral type is a datum generally available, we derive empirical relations showing the coupling of θeff and [M/H] at given spectral type and luminosity class. Similar relations are offered for the absolute magnitudes and provide a more accurate means for deriving spectroscopic parallaxes. Systematic effects on the estimation of the luminosity class are also shown.
