| 66 | * Notes:
|
|---|
| 67 | * - Only the first character of the TYPE argument is significant.
|
|---|
| 68 | * 'R' or 'r' indicates that OBS1 and OBS2 are the observed right
|
|---|
| 69 | * ascension and declination; 'H' or 'h' indicates that they are
|
|---|
| 70 | * hour angle (west +ve) and declination; anything else ('A' or
|
|---|
| 71 | * 'a' is recommended) indicates that OBS1 and OBS2 are azimuth
|
|---|
| 72 | * (north zero, east 90 deg) and zenith distance. (Zenith
|
|---|
| 73 | * distance is used rather than elevation in order to reflect the
|
|---|
| 74 | * fact that no allowance is made for depression of the horizon.)
|
|---|
| 75 | *
|
|---|
| 76 | * - The accuracy of the result is limited by the corrections for
|
|---|
| 77 | * refraction. Providing the meteorological parameters are
|
|---|
| 78 | * known accurately and there are no gross local effects, the
|
|---|
| 79 | * predicted apparent RA,Dec should be within about 0.1 arcsec
|
|---|
| 80 | * for a zenith distance of less than 70 degrees. Even at a
|
|---|
| 81 | * topocentric zenith distance of 90 degrees, the accuracy in
|
|---|
| 82 | * elevation should be better than 1 arcmin; useful results
|
|---|
| 83 | * are available for a further 3 degrees, beyond which the
|
|---|
| 84 | * palRefro routine returns a fixed value of the refraction.
|
|---|
| 85 | * The complementary routines palAop (or palAopqk) and palOap
|
|---|
| 86 | * (or palOapqk) are self-consistent to better than 1 micro-
|
|---|
| 87 | * arcsecond all over the celestial sphere.
|
|---|
| 88 | *
|
|---|
| 89 | * - It is advisable to take great care with units, as even
|
|---|
| 90 | * unlikely values of the input parameters are accepted and
|
|---|
| 91 | * processed in accordance with the models used.
|
|---|
| 92 | *
|
|---|
| 93 | * - "Observed" Az,El means the position that would be seen by a
|
|---|
| 94 | * perfect theodolite located at the observer. This is
|
|---|
| 95 | * related to the observed HA,Dec via the standard rotation, using
|
|---|
| 96 | * the geodetic latitude (corrected for polar motion), while the
|
|---|
| 97 | * observed HA and RA are related simply through the local
|
|---|
| 98 | * apparent ST. "Observed" RA,Dec or HA,Dec thus means the
|
|---|
| 99 | * position that would be seen by a perfect equatorial located
|
|---|
| 100 | * at the observer and with its polar axis aligned to the
|
|---|
| 101 | * Earth's axis of rotation (n.b. not to the refracted pole).
|
|---|
| 102 | * By removing from the observed place the effects of
|
|---|
| 103 | * atmospheric refraction and diurnal aberration, the
|
|---|
| 104 | * geocentric apparent RA,Dec is obtained.
|
|---|
| 105 | *
|
|---|
| 106 | * - Frequently, mean rather than apparent RA,Dec will be required,
|
|---|
| 107 | * in which case further transformations will be necessary. The
|
|---|
| 108 | * palAmp etc routines will convert the apparent RA,Dec produced
|
|---|
| 109 | * by the present routine into an "FK5" (J2000) mean place, by
|
|---|
| 110 | * allowing for the Sun's gravitational lens effect, annual
|
|---|
| 111 | * aberration, nutation and precession. Should "FK4" (1950)
|
|---|
| 112 | * coordinates be needed, the routines palFk524 etc will also
|
|---|
| 113 | * need to be applied.
|
|---|
| 114 | *
|
|---|
| 115 | * - To convert to apparent RA,Dec the coordinates read from a
|
|---|
| 116 | * real telescope, corrections would have to be applied for
|
|---|
| 117 | * encoder zero points, gear and encoder errors, tube flexure,
|
|---|
| 118 | * the position of the rotator axis and the pointing axis
|
|---|
| 119 | * relative to it, non-perpendicularity between the mounting
|
|---|
| 120 | * axes, and finally for the tilt of the azimuth or polar axis
|
|---|
| 121 | * of the mounting (with appropriate corrections for mount
|
|---|
| 122 | * flexures). Some telescopes would, of course, exhibit other
|
|---|
| 123 | * properties which would need to be accounted for at the
|
|---|
| 124 | * appropriate point in the sequence.
|
|---|
| 125 | *
|
|---|
| 126 | * - This routine takes time to execute, due mainly to the rigorous
|
|---|
| 127 | * integration used to evaluate the refraction. For processing
|
|---|
| 128 | * multiple stars for one location and time, call palAoppa once
|
|---|
| 129 | * followed by one call per star to palOapqk. Where a range of
|
|---|
| 130 | * times within a limited period of a few hours is involved, and the
|
|---|
| 131 | * highest precision is not required, call palAoppa once, followed
|
|---|
| 132 | * by a call to palAoppat each time the time changes, followed by
|
|---|
| 133 | * one call per star to palOapqk.
|
|---|
| 134 | *
|
|---|
| 135 | * - The DATE argument is UTC expressed as an MJD. This is, strictly
|
|---|
| 136 | * speaking, wrong, because of leap seconds. However, as long as
|
|---|
| 137 | * the delta UT and the UTC are consistent there are no
|
|---|
| 138 | * difficulties, except during a leap second. In this case, the
|
|---|
| 139 | * start of the 61st second of the final minute should begin a new
|
|---|
| 140 | * MJD day and the old pre-leap delta UT should continue to be used.
|
|---|
| 141 | * As the 61st second completes, the MJD should revert to the start
|
|---|
| 142 | * of the day as, simultaneously, the delta UTC changes by one
|
|---|
| 143 | * second to its post-leap new value.
|
|---|
| 144 | *
|
|---|
| 145 | * - The delta UT (UT1-UTC) is tabulated in IERS circulars and
|
|---|
| 146 | * elsewhere. It increases by exactly one second at the end of
|
|---|
| 147 | * each UTC leap second, introduced in order to keep delta UT
|
|---|
| 148 | * within +/- 0.9 seconds.
|
|---|
| 149 | *
|
|---|
| 150 | * - IMPORTANT -- TAKE CARE WITH THE LONGITUDE SIGN CONVENTION.
|
|---|
| 151 | * The longitude required by the present routine is east-positive,
|
|---|
| 152 | * in accordance with geographical convention (and right-handed).
|
|---|
| 153 | * In particular, note that the longitudes returned by the
|
|---|
| 154 | * palOBS routine are west-positive, following astronomical
|
|---|
| 155 | * usage, and must be reversed in sign before use in the present
|
|---|
| 156 | * routine.
|
|---|
| 157 | *
|
|---|
| 158 | * - The polar coordinates XP,YP can be obtained from IERS
|
|---|
| 159 | * circulars and equivalent publications. The maximum amplitude
|
|---|
| 160 | * is about 0.3 arcseconds. If XP,YP values are unavailable,
|
|---|
| 161 | * use XP=YP=0D0. See page B60 of the 1988 Astronomical Almanac
|
|---|
| 162 | * for a definition of the two angles.
|
|---|
| 163 | *
|
|---|
| 164 | * - The height above sea level of the observing station, HM,
|
|---|
| 165 | * can be obtained from the Astronomical Almanac (Section J
|
|---|
| 166 | * in the 1988 edition), or via the routine palOBS. If P,
|
|---|
| 167 | * the pressure in millibars, is available, an adequate
|
|---|
| 168 | * estimate of HM can be obtained from the expression
|
|---|
| 169 | *
|
|---|
| 170 | * HM ~ -29.3*TSL*LOG(P/1013.25).
|
|---|
| 171 | *
|
|---|
| 172 | * where TSL is the approximate sea-level air temperature in K
|
|---|
| 173 | * (see Astrophysical Quantities, C.W.Allen, 3rd edition,
|
|---|
| 174 | * section 52). Similarly, if the pressure P is not known,
|
|---|
| 175 | * it can be estimated from the height of the observing
|
|---|
| 176 | * station, HM, as follows:
|
|---|
| 177 | *
|
|---|
| 178 | * P ~ 1013.25*EXP(-HM/(29.3*TSL)).
|
|---|
| 179 | *
|
|---|
| 180 | * Note, however, that the refraction is nearly proportional to the
|
|---|
| 181 | * pressure and that an accurate P value is important for precise
|
|---|
| 182 | * work.
|
|---|
| 183 | *
|
|---|
| 184 | * - The azimuths etc. used by the present routine are with respect
|
|---|
| 185 | * to the celestial pole. Corrections from the terrestrial pole
|
|---|
| 186 | * can be computed using palPolmo.
