<DT>1.
<DD>Use of this routine is appropriate when efficiency is important
and where many star positions, all referred to the same equator
and equinox, are to be transformed for one epoch.  The
        star-independent parameters can be obtained by calling the
        sla_MAPPA routine.
  <DT>2.
<DD>If the parallax and proper motions are zero the sla_MAPQKZ
        routine can be used instead.
  <DT>3.
<DD>The vectors AMPRMS(2-4) and AMPRMS(5-7) are referred to
        the mean equinox and equator of epoch EQ.
  <DT>4.
<DD>Strictly speaking, the routine is not valid for solar-system
        sources, though the error will usually be extremely small.
        However, to prevent gross errors in the case where the
        position of the Sun is specified, the gravitational
        deflection term is restrained within about <IMG WIDTH="33" HEIGHT="18" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img124.gif"
 ALT="$920\hspace{-0.05em}^{'\hspace{-0.1em}'}$"> of the
        centre of the Sun's disc.  The term has a maximum value of
        about 
      <IMG WIDTH="31" HEIGHT="18" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img125.gif"
 ALT="$1\hspace{-0.05em}^{'\hspace{-0.1em}'}\hspace{-0.4em}.85$">    at this radius, and decreases to zero as
        the centre of the disc is approached.
