<DD>Convert J2000.0 FK5 star data to B1950.0 FK4.
This routine converts stars from the new, IAU&nbsp;1976, FK5, Fricke
         system, to the old, Bessel-Newcomb, FK4 system.
         The precepts of Smith&nbsp;<I>et&nbsp;al.</I> (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.

<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>Note that conversion from Julian epoch 2000.0 to Besselian
        epoch 1950.0 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
        FK524 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 2000,
        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.
