+ SUBROUTINE slFK5H (R5,D5,DR5,DD5,RH,DH,DRH,DDH)
+

+ F K 5 H

+
+ Transform FK5 (J2000) star data into the Hipparcos frame.
+
+ (double precision)
+
+ This routine transforms FK5 star positions and proper motions
+ into the frame of the Hipparcos catalogue.
+
+ Given (all FK5, equinox J2000, epoch J2000):
+ R5 d RA (radians)
+ D5 d Dec (radians)
+ DR5 d proper motion in RA (dRA/dt, rad/Jyear)
+ DD5 d proper motion in Dec (dDec/dt, rad/Jyear)
+
+ Returned (all Hipparcos, epoch J2000):
+ RH d RA (radians)
+ DH d Dec (radians)
+ DRH d proper motion in RA (dRA/dt, rad/Jyear)
+ DDH d proper motion in Dec (dDec/dt, rad/Jyear)
+
+ Called: slDSC6, slDAVM, slDMXV, slDVXV, slDC6S
+
+ Notes:
+
+ 1) The proper motions in RA are dRA/dt rather than
+ cos(Dec)*dRA/dt, and are per year rather than per century.
+
+ 2) The FK5 to Hipparcos transformation consists of a pure
+ rotation and spin; zonal errors in the FK5 catalogue are
+ not taken into account.
+
+ 3) The published orientation and spin components are interpreted
+ as "axial vectors". An axial vector points at the pole of the
+ rotation and its length is the amount of rotation in radians.
+
+ 4) See also slHFK5, slF5HZ, slHF5Z.
