SLA_FK5HZ

FK5 to Hipparcos, no P.M.

ACTION:

Transform an FK5 (J2000) star position into the frame of the Hipparcos catalogue, assuming zero Hipparcos proper motion.

CALL:

CALL sla_FK5HZ (R5, D5, EPOCH, RH, DH)

GIVEN:

RETURNED:

NOTES:

(1)

The $\alpha$ proper motions are $\dot{\alpha }$ rather than $\dot{\alpha }cos\delta$, 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 adopted epoch J2000.0 FK5 to Hipparcos orientation and spin values are as follows (see reference):

            

	orientation	spin
$x$	$-19.9$	$-0.30$
$y$	$-9.1$	$+0.60$
$z$	$+22.9$	$+0.70$
	mas	mas/y

These 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.
