3* Name:
4* palNut
5
6* Purpose:
7* Form the matrix of nutation
8
9* Language:
10* Starlink ANSI C
11
12* Type of Module:
13* Library routine
14
15* Invocation:
16* void palNut( double date, double rmatn[3][3] );
17
18* Arguments:
19* date = double (Given)
20* TT as modified Julian date (JD-2400000.5)
21* rmatn = double [3][3] (Returned)
22* Nutation matrix in the sense v(true)=rmatn * v(mean)
23* where v(true) is the star vector relative to the
24* true equator and equinox of date and v(mean) is the
25* star vector relative to the mean equator and equinox
26* of date.
27
28* Description:
29* Form the matrix of nutation for a given date using
30* the IAU 2006 nutation model and palDeuler.

32* Authors:
33* PTW: Patrick T. Wallace

37* Notes:
38* - Uses eraNut06a via palNutc
39* - The distinction between TDB and TT is negligible. For all but
40* the most critical applications UTC is adequate.
