Differential photometry in LSST alerts contains a flux for the difference image, which may be (should be?) combined with the science image flux to produce a total magnitude. Do we need to do this? See: https://community.lsst.org/t/information-about-the-templates-in-the-alert-packet/9592
Also, check which zero point we should be using (likely not the same one as in elasticc): https://pstn-001.lsst.io/ https://community.lsst.org/t/photocalib-has-replaced-calib-welcoming-our-nanojansky-overlords/3648
