Abstract Observations made at Mauna Kea Observatory between 1971 July and 1972 May establish relative fluxes in the 17-25-p band. Based on an absolute flux for a Boo at 20 p of 1.54 X 10-16 W cm-2 (m20 = -3.32) derived from shorter-wavelength observations and from model atmospheres, we obtain 20-p magnitudes for nonvariable standards as follows: a Tau, -3.21; a Ori, -5.67; Gem, -1.24; and Peg, -2.71. Preliminary data on eight other stars are also presented.
