Description
A new photometric system suitable for deep, precise and quick
metallicity mapping in galaxies is proposed. We find a linear
correlation between our metallicity index and the Mg_2 index for
stellar, globular-cluster, and early-type galaxy spectra, and model
spectral energy distributions of the simple stellar populations.
