palPrebn
palPrebn
- Generate the matrix of precession between two objects (old)
- Description:
- Generate the matrix of precession between two epochs,
using the old, pre-IAU1976, Bessel-Newcomb model, using
Kinoshita's formulation
- Invocation:
- void palPrebn ( double bep0, double bep1, double rmatp[3][3] );
- Arguments:
-
-
bep0 = double (Given)
-
Beginning Besselian epoch.
-
bep1 = double (Given)
-
Ending Besselian epoch
-
rmatp = double[3][3] (Returned)
-
precession matrix in the sense V(BEP1) = RMATP
V(BEP0)
