//! # Photometric filter passbands
//!
//! ## Scientific scope
//!
//! Synthetic photometry — the conversion of a stellar or extragalactic
//! spectral energy distribution into broad-band magnitudes — requires
//! the spectral response curve `S(λ)` of each filter in the photometric
//! system. For the Johnson–Cousins UBVRI system, the de-facto modern
//! reference is Bessell (1990), recommended by Bessell & Murphy (2012)
//! as the canonical realisation of the historical Johnson–Cousins
//! definitions. Each sub-module of this module bundles a curated
//! transmission curve for one such system, distributed as a
//! lazily-initialised, statically-cached
//! [`SampledSpectrum`](crate::spectra::SampledSpectrum) constant.
//!
//! Validity ranges are bounded by the wavelength interval of the
//! published table; outside that interval the throughput is taken as
//! zero (the conventional assumption for a compactly supported filter).
//!
//! ## Technical scope
//!
//! - [`Throughput`] — `qtty::Unit` marker for dimensionless filter
//!   throughput in `[0, 1]`. Distinct from
//!   `crate::atmosphere::Transmittance` so the two concepts
//!   remain typewise distinguishable.
//! - [`johnson_b`] / [`johnson_v`] — convenience accessors returning
//!   the Bessell (1990) Johnson *B* and *V* curves (aliases for
//!   [`bessell1990::b`] / [`bessell1990::v`]).
//! - [`bessell1990`] — bundled UBVRI dataset.
//!
