+* Velocity component in a given direction due to the rotation
+* of the Galaxy (single precision)
+*
+* Given:
+* R2000,D2000 real J2000.0 mean RA,Dec (radians)
+*
+* Result:
+* Component of dynamical LSR motion in direction R2000,D2000 (km/s)
+*
+* Sign convention:
+* The result is +ve when the dynamical LSR is receding from the
+* given point on the sky.
+*
+* Note: The Local Standard of Rest used here is a point in the
+* vicinity of the Sun which is in a circular orbit around
+* the Galactic centre. Sometimes called the "dynamical" LSR,
+* it is not to be confused with a "kinematical" LSR, which
+* is the mean standard of rest of star catalogues or stellar
+* populations.
+*
+* Reference: The orbital speed of 220 km/s used here comes from
+* Kerr & Lynden-Bell (1986), MNRAS, 221, p1023.
