3* Name:
4* palEcmat
5
6* Purpose:
7* Form the equatorial to ecliptic rotation matrix - IAU 2006
8* precession model.
9
10* Language:
11* Starlink ANSI C
12
13* Type of Module:
14* Library routine
15
16* Invocation:
17* palEcmat( double date, double rmat[3][3] )
18
19* Arguments:
20* date = double (Given)
21* TT as Modified Julian Date (JD-2400000.5). The difference
22* between TT and TDB is of the order of a millisecond or two
23* (i.e. about 0.02 arc-seconds).
24* rmat = double[3][3] (Returned)
25* Rotation matrix
26
27* Description:
28* The equatorial to ecliptic rotation matrix is found and returned.
29* The matrix is in the sense V(ecl) = RMAT * V(equ); the
30* equator, equinox and ecliptic are mean of date.
