Calibration update of the COMBO-17 CDFS catalogue.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present an update to the photometric calibration of the COMBO-17 catalogue on the Extended Chandra Deep Field South, which is now consistent with the GaBoDS and MUSYC catalogues. As a result, photometric redshifts become slightly more accurate, with <0.01 rms and little bias in the δz/(1+z) of galaxies with R<21 and of QSOs with R<24. With increasing photon noise the rms of galaxies reaches 0.02 for R<23 and 0.035 at R≃23.5. Consequences for the rest-frame colours of galaxies at z<1 are discussed.
