SUBROUTINE slRFCO ( HM, TDK, PMB, RH, WL, PHI, TLR, EPS, : REFA, REFB ) *+ * - - - - - - * R F C O * - - - - - - * * Determine the constants A and B in the atmospheric refraction * model dZ = A tan Z + B tan**3 Z. * * Z is the "observed" zenith distance (i.e. affected by refraction) * and dZ is what to add to Z to give the "topocentric" (i.e. in vacuo) * zenith distance. * * Given: * HM d height of the observer above sea level (metre) * TDK d ambient temperature at the observer (K) * PMB d pressure at the observer (millibar) * RH d relative humidity at the observer (range 0-1) * WL d effective wavelength of the source (micrometre) * PHI d latitude of the observer (radian, astronomical) * TLR d temperature lapse rate in the troposphere (K/metre) * EPS d precision required to terminate iteration (radian) * * Returned: * REFA d tan Z coefficient (radian) * REFB d tan**3 Z coefficient (radian) * * Called: slRFRO * * Notes: * * 1 Typical values for the TLR and EPS arguments might be 0.0065D0 and * 1D-10 respectively. * * 2 The radio refraction is chosen by specifying WL > 100 micrometres. * * 3 The routine is a slower but more accurate alternative to the * slRFCQ routine. The constants it produces give perfect * agreement with slRFRO at zenith distances arctan(1) (45 deg) * and arctan(4) (about 76 deg). It achieves 0.5 arcsec accuracy * for ZD < 80 deg, 0.01 arcsec accuracy for ZD < 60 deg, and * 0.001 arcsec accuracy for ZD < 45 deg. * * P.T.Wallace Starlink 22 May 2004 * * Copyright (C) 2004 Rutherford Appleton Laboratory * * License: * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or * (at your option) any later version. * * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
