SLA_PREBN - Precession Matrix (FK4) +   +

+
+
ACTION: +
Generate the matrix of precession between two epochs, +using the old, pre IAU 1976, Bessel-Newcomb model, in + Andoyer's formulation. +

CALL: +
CALL sla_PREBN (BEP0, BEP1, RMATP) +

+

+
GIVEN: +
+
+ + + + + + + + + +
BEP0Dbeginning Besselian epoch
BEP1Dending Besselian epoch
+

+
RETURNED: +
+
+ + + + + +
RMATPD(3,3)precession matrix
+

+
NOTE: +
The matrix is in the sense: +
v1 = M$\cdot$v0
+ where v1 is the star vector relative to the + mean equator and equinox of epoch BEP1, M is the + $3\times3$ matrix RMATP and + v0 is the star vector relative to the + mean equator and equinox of epoch BEP0. +
