<DT>1.
<DD>Sign convention: the result is positive when the LSR
is receding from the given point on the sky.
<DT>2.
<DD>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 <I>dynamical</I> LSR,
it is not to be confused with a <I>kinematical</I> LSR, which
is the mean standard of rest of star catalogues or stellar
populations.
<DT>3.
<DD>The dynamical LSR velocity due to Galactic rotation is assumed to
be 220 km s<SUP>-1</SUP> towards <IMG WIDTH="64" HEIGHT="17" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
