<DD>Convert B1950.0 FK4 star data to J2000.0 FK5.
This routine converts stars from the old, Bessel-Newcomb, FK4
         system to the new, IAU&nbsp;1976, FK5, Fricke system.  The precepts
         of Smith&nbsp;<I>et&nbsp;al.</I> (see reference&nbsp;1) are followed,
         using the implementation
         by Yallop&nbsp;<I>et&nbsp;al.</I> (reference&nbsp;2) of a matrix method
         due to Standish.
         Kinoshita's development of Andoyer's post-Newcomb precession is
         used.  The numerical constants from 
         Seidelmann&nbsp;<I>et&nbsp;al.</I>  (reference&nbsp;3) are used canonically.

<DT><STRONG>NOTES:</STRONG>
<DD><DL COMPACT>
<DT>1.
<DD>The <IMG WIDTH="13" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img24.gif"
 ALT="$\alpha$"> proper motions are <IMG WIDTH="13" HEIGHT="13" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img115.gif"
 ALT="$\dot{\alpha}$"> rather than
<IMG WIDTH="48" HEIGHT="13" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img116.gif"
 ALT="$\dot{\alpha}\cos\delta$">, and are per year rather than per century.
<DT>2.
<DD>Conversion from Besselian epoch 1950.0 to Julian epoch
        2000.0 only is provided for.  Conversions involving other
        epochs will require use of the appropriate precession,
        proper motion, and E-terms routines before and/or after FK425
        is called.
  <DT>3.
<DD>In the FK4 catalogue the proper motions of stars within
        <IMG WIDTH="26" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img117.gif"
 ALT="$10^{\circ}$"> of the poles do not include the <I>differential
        E-terms</I> effect and should, strictly speaking, be handled
        in a different manner from stars outside these regions.
        However, given the general lack of homogeneity of the star
        data available for routine astrometry, the difficulties of
        handling positions that may have been determined from
        astrometric fields spanning the polar and non-polar regions,
        the likelihood that the differential E-terms effect was not
        taken into account when allowing for proper motion in past
        astrometry, and the undesirability of a discontinuity in
        the algorithm, the decision has been made in this routine to
        include the effect of differential E-terms on the proper
        motions for all stars, whether polar or not.  At epoch J2000,
        and measuring on the sky rather than in terms of <IMG WIDTH="27" HEIGHT="13" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img118.gif"
 ALT="$\Delta\alpha$">,        the errors resulting from this simplification are less than
        1&nbsp;milliarcsecond in position and 1&nbsp;milliarcsecond per
        century in proper motion.
