3* Name:
4* palSubet
5
6* Purpose:
7* Remove the E-terms from a pre IAU 1976 catalogue RA,Dec
8
9* Language:
10* Starlink ANSI C
11
12* Type of Module:
13* Library routine
14
15* Invocation:
16* void palSubet ( double rc, double dc, double eq,
17* double *rm, double *dm );
18
19* Arguments:
20* rc = double (Given)
21* RA with E-terms included (radians)
22* dc = double (Given)
23* Dec with E-terms included (radians)
24* eq = double (Given)
25* Besselian epoch of mean equator and equinox
26* rm = double * (Returned)
27* RA without E-terms (radians)
28* dm = double * (Returned)
29* Dec without E-terms (radians)
30
31* Description:
32* Remove the E-terms (elliptic component of annual aberration)
33* from a pre IAU 1976 catalogue RA,Dec to give a mean place.
34
35* Authors:
36* PTW: Pat Wallace (STFC)
37* TIMJ: Tim Jenness (JAC, Hawaii)

40* Notes:
41* Most star positions from pre-1984 optical catalogues (or
42* derived from astrometry using such stars) embody the
43* E-terms. This routine converts such a position to a
44* formal mean place (allowing, for example, comparison with a
45* pulsar timing position).
