+*  HA, Dec to Parallactic Angle (double precision)
+*
+*  Given:
+*     HA     d     hour angle in radians (geocentric apparent)
+*     DEC    d     declination in radians (geocentric apparent)
+*     PHI    d     observatory latitude in radians (geodetic)
+*
+*  The result is in the range -pi to +pi
+*
+*  Notes:
+*
+*  1)  The parallactic angle at a point in the sky is the position
+*      angle of the vertical, i.e. the angle between the direction to
+*      the pole and to the zenith.  In precise applications care must
+*      be taken only to use geocentric apparent HA,Dec and to consider
+*      separately the effects of atmospheric refraction and telescope
+*      mount errors.
+*
+*  2)  At the pole a zero result is returned.
