SuperNOVAS: src/eph_manager.c File Reference

SuperNOVAS planetary ephemeris manager for the planet_eph_manager and planet_eph_manager_hp() functions.

This module exposes a lot of its own internal state variables globally. You probably should not access them from outside this module, but they are kept ad globals to ensure compatibility with existing NOVAS C applications that might access those values.

Based on the NOVAS C Edition, Version 3.1:

NOTES:

1. Includes fix for the known resource leak issue in NOVAS C 3.1.

Returns

0 if the file successfully closed or was closed already, or else EOF.

ephem_open()

References BUFFER, and EPHFILE.

This function opens a JPL planetary ephemeris file and sets initial values. This function must be called prior to calls to the other JPL ephemeris functions.

REFERENCES:

1. Standish, E.M. and Newhall, X X (1988). "The JPL Export Planetary Ephemeris"; JPL document dated 17 June 1988.

Parameters

ephem_name Name/path of the direct-access ephemeris file. [out] jd_begin [day] Beginning Julian date of the ephemeris file. It may be NULL if not required. [out] jd_end [day] Ending Julian date of the ephemeris file. It may be NULL if not required. [out] de_number DE number of the ephemeris file opened. It may be NULL if not required.

Returns

0 if successful, or -1 if any of the arhuments is NULL, or else 1 if the file could no be opened, 2–10 if (= line + 1) if there was an error reading the header line, or 11 if the type of DE file is not supported.

Differentiates and interpolates a set of Chebyshev coefficients to give position and velocity.

REFERENCES:

1. Standish, E.M. and Newhall, X X (1988). "The JPL Export Planetary Ephemeris"; JPL document dated 17 June 1988.

Parameters

buf Array of Chebyshev coefficients of position. t t[0] is fractional time interval covered by coefficients at which interpolation is desired (0 <= t[0] <= 1). t[1] is length of whole interval in input time units. ncf Number of coefficients per component. na Number of sets of coefficients in full array (i.e., number of sub-intervals in full interval). [out] position Position array of requested object. [out] velocity Velocity array of requested object.

Returns

0 if successful, or -1 if one of the input arrays or output pointer arguments is NULL.

Retries planet position and velocity data from the JPL planetary ephemeris

(If nutations are desired, set 'target' = 13; 'center' will be ignored on that call.)

REFERENCES:

1. Standish, E.M. and Newhall, X X (1988). "The JPL Export Planetary Ephemeris"; JPL document dated 17 June 1988.

Parameters

tjd [day] Two-element array containing the Julian date, which may be split any way (although the first element is usually the "integer" part, and the second element is the "fractional" part). Julian date is in the TDB or "T_eph" time scale. target The integer code (see above) for the planet for which coordinates are requested, e.g. DE_JUPITER. origin The integer code of the planet or position relative to which coordinates are measured. [out] position [AU] Position vector array of target relative to center, measured in AU. [out] velocity [AU/day] Velocity vector array of target relative to center, measured in AU/day.

Returns

0 if successful, or -1 if one of the pointer arguments is NULL, or else the error returned from state().

See also

ephem_open()

References state().

reaks up a double number into a double integer part and a fractional part.

Parameters

tt Input number. [out] fr 2-element output array; fr[0] contains integer part, fr[1] contains fractional part. For negative input numbers, fr[0] contains the next more negative integer; fr[1] contains a positive fraction.

Returns

0 if successful, or -1 if the output pointer argument is NULL.

Reads and interpolates the JPL planetary ephemeris file.

For ease in programming, the user may put the entire epoch in jed[0] and set jed[1] = 0. For maximum interpolation accuracy, set jed[0] = the most recent midnight at or before interpolation epoch, and set jed[1] = fractional part of a day elapsed between jed[0] and epoch. As an alternative, it may prove convenient to set jed[0] = some fixed epoch, such as start of the integration and jed[1] = elapsed interval between then and epoch.

Parameters

jed [day] 2-element Julian date (TDB) at which interpolation is wanted. Any combination of jed[0]+jed[1] which falls within the time span on the file is a permissible epoch. See Note 1 below. target (short) target The integer code (see above) for the planet for which coordinates are requested, e.g. DE_JUPITER. [out] target_pos [AU] The barycentric position vector array of the requested object, in AU. [out] target_vel [AU/day] The barycentric velocity vector array of the requested object, in AU/Day.

Returns

0 if successful, -1 if any of the pointer arguments is NULL, or else 1 if there was an error reading the ephemeris file, or 2 if the epoch is out of range.

Flag that defines physical units of the output states.

Flag that defines physical units of the output states. 1: km and km/sec; 0: AU and AU/day. Its default value is 0 (KM determines time unit for nutations. Angle unit is always radians.)
