We present a list of standard stars, observed in the J(1.2 μm), H(1.6 μm) and K(2.2 μm) near-infrared passbands. These standards have magnitudes in the range 8<K<10, and are suitable for use with infrared arrays. The errors are estimated to be ± 0.025 mag. Observations of these infrared standard stars in the optical UBVRI passbands are also presented. This project also produced six new bright Carter standards (K<7.5) to supplement the list provided by Carter.
Carter et al. (1995) studied this question.
