Description:
Transformation from IAU 1958 galactic coordinates to J2000.0 equatorial
coordinates.
Invocation
void palGaleq ( double dl, double db, double
dr, double
dd );
Arguments
dl = double (Given)
Galactic longitude (radians).
db = double (Given)
Galactic latitude (radians).
dr = double
(Returned)
J2000.0 RA
(radians)
dd = double
(Returned)
J2000.0 Dec (radians)
Notes:
The equatorial coordinates are J2000.0. Use the routine
palGe50 if conversion to B1950.0 ’ FK4’ coordinates is required.
