The measurement of magnitudes with different filters in photometric surveys gives access to cosmological distances and parameters. However, for current and future large surveys like the ZTF, DES, HSC or LSST, the photometric calibration uncertainties are almost comparable to statistical uncertainties in the error budget of type Ia cosmology analysis, which limits our ability to use type Ia supernovae for precision cosmology. The knowledge of the bandpasses of the survey filters at the per-mill level can help reach the sub-percent precision for magnitudes. We show how a misknowledge of the bandpasses central wavelengths or of the presence of out-of-band leakages leads to biased cosmological measurements. Then, we present how to measure the filter throughputs at the required precision with a Collimated Beam Projector.

ZTF SNe Ia DR2: Towards cosmology-grade ZTF supernova light curves using scene modeling photometry
ZTF's scene modeling photometry, compared against its forced photometry release, shows a new CCD pocket effect that adds up to 7% flux-dependent nonlinearities and makes the DR2 supernova light curves unusable for pre...
