For example, * JD=2450123.7 could be expressed in any of these ways, among * others: * * UTA UTB * * 2450123.7D0 0D0 (JD method) * 2451545D0 -1421.3D0 (J2000 method) * 2400000.5D0 50123.2D0 (MJD method) * 2450123.5D0 0.2D0 (date & time method) * * The JD method is the most natural and convenient to use in cases * where the loss of several decimal digits of resolution is * acceptable. The J2000 and MJD methods are good compromises * between resolution and convenience. For UT, the date & time * method is best matched to the algorithm that is used by the Earth * Rotation Angle routine, called internally: maximum accuracy (or, * at least, minimum noise) is delivered when the UTA argument is for * 0hrs UT1 on the day in question and the UTB argument lies in the * range 0 to 1, or vice versa. * * 2) The result is compatible with the IAU 2000 resolutions, except * that accuracy has been compromised for the sake of speed and * convenience in two respects: * * . UT is used instead of TDB (or TT) to compute the precession * component of GMST and the equation of the equinoxes. This * results in errors of order 0.1 mas at present. * * . The IAU 2000B abridged nutation model (McCarthy & Luzum, 2001) * is used, introducing errors of up to 1 mas. * * 3) This GAST is compatible with the IAU 2000 resolutions and must be * used only in conjunction with other IAU 2000 compatible components * such as precession-nutation. * * 4) The result is returned in the range 0 to 2pi. * * 5) The algorithm is from Capitaine et al. (2003) and IERS Conventions * 2003. * * Called: * iau_GMST00 Greenwich mean sidereal time, IAU 2000 * iau_EE00B equation of the equinoxes, IAU 2000B * iau_ANP normalize angle into range 0 to 2pi * * References: * * Capitaine, N., Wallace, P.T. and McCarthy, D.D., "Expressions to * implement the IAU 2000 definition of UT1", Astronomy & * Astrophysics, 406, 1135-1149 (2003) * * McCarthy, D.D. & Luzum, B.J., "An abridged model of the * precession-nutation of the celestial pole", Celestial Mechanics & * Dynamical Astronomy, 85, 37-49 (2003) * * McCarthy, D.
