/** The photometric system description
 *
 *  The photometric system is defined by the psPhotSystem structure. A 
 *  photometric system is identified by a human-readable name (ie, SDSS.g, 
 *  Landolt92.B, GPC1.OTA32.r). Each photometric system is given a unique 
 *  identifier ID. Observations taken with a specific camera, detector, and 
 *  filter represent their own photometric system, and it may be necessary to 
 *  perform transformations between these systems. Photometric systems 
 *  associated with observations from a specific camera/ detector/filter 
 *  combination can be associated with those components.
 *
