3* Name:
4* palRvlg
5
6* Purpose:
7* Velocity component in a given direction due to Galactic rotation
8* and motion of the local group.
9
10* Language:
11* Starlink ANSI C
12
13* Type of Module:
14* Library routine
15
16* Invocation:
17* double palRvlg( double r2000, double d2000 )
18
19* Arguments:
20* r2000 = double (Given)
21* J2000.0 mean RA (radians)
22* d2000 = double (Given)
23* J2000.0 mean Dec (radians)
24
25* Returned Value:
26* Component of SOLAR motion in direction R2000,D2000 (km/s).
27
28* Description:
29* This function returns the velocity component in a given
30* direction due to the combination of the rotation of the
31* Galaxy and the motion of the Galaxy relative to the mean
32* motion of the local group. The result is +ve when the Sun
33* is receding from the given point on the sky.
