9** Greenwich apparent sidereal time (consistent with IAU 2000 and 2006
10** resolutions).
11**
12** Given:
13** uta,utb double UT1 as a 2-part Julian Date (Notes 1,2)
14** tta,ttb double TT as a 2-part Julian Date (Notes 1,2)
15**
16** Returned (function value):
17** double Greenwich apparent sidereal time (radians)
18**
19** Notes:
20**
21** 1) The UT1 and TT dates uta+utb and tta+ttb respectively, are both
22** Julian Dates, apportioned in any convenient way between the
23** argument pairs. For example, JD=2450123.7 could be expressed in
24** any of these ways, among others:
25**
26** Part A Part B
27**
28** 2450123.7 0.0 (JD method)
29** 2451545.0 -1421.3 (J2000 method)
30** 2400000.5 50123.2 (MJD method)
31** 2450123.5 0.2 (date & time method)
32**
33** The JD method is the most natural and convenient to use in
34** cases where the loss of several decimal digits of resolution
35** is acceptable (in the case of UT; the TT is not at all critical
36** in this respect). The J2000 and MJD methods are good compromises
37** between resolution and convenience. For UT, the date & time
38** method is best matched to the algorithm that is used by the Earth
39** rotation angle function, called internally: maximum precision is
40** delivered when the uta argument is for 0hrs UT1 on the day in
41** question and the utb argument lies in the range 0 to 1, or vice
42** versa.
43**
44** 2) Both UT1 and TT are required, UT1 to predict the Earth rotation
45** and TT to predict the effects of precession-nutation. If UT1 is
46** used for both purposes, errors of order 100 microarcseconds
47** result.
48**
49** 3) This GAST is compatible with the IAU 2000/2006 resolutions and
50** must be used only in conjunction with IAU 2006 precession and
51** IAU 2000A nutation.
52**
53** 4) The result is returned in the range 0 to 2pi.

84** This library is derived, with permission, from the International

87**
88** The ERFA version is intended to retain identical functionality to
89** the SOFA library, but made distinct through different function and
90** file names, as set out in the SOFA license conditions. The SOFA
91** original has a role as a reference standard for the IAU and IERS,
92** and consequently redistribution is permitted only in its unaltered
93** state. The ERFA version is not subject to this restriction and
94** therefore can be included in distributions which do not support the
95** concept of "read only" software.
96**
97** Although the intent is to replicate the SOFA API (other than
98** replacement of prefix names) and results (with the exception of
99** bugs; any that are discovered will be fixed), SOFA is not
100** responsible for any errors found in this version of the library.
101**
102** If you wish to acknowledge the SOFA heritage, please acknowledge
103** that you are using a library derived from SOFA, rather than SOFA
104** itself.
