Family of average spectral templates in the 5 to 37 μm range. These templates are used for K-correction to 24 μm rest band. The templates are keyed to the log( L(TIR)) of the galaxies, calculated as by Sanders et al. (2003). They are normalized at 14 μm. The templates for the three highest luminosities are extrapolated and therefore are only indicative.
