% Computes the transformation form ECI to ECIR. ECIR is an inertially fixed frame that coincides with EF at jD. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: m = ECIToECIR( jD, eOfECalc ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ jD (1,1) Julian date eOfECalc (1,1) Calculate the equation of the equinoxes ------- Outputs ------- m (3,3) Julian date at which theta is zero -------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: Seidelmann, P. K., ed., The Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Almanac, University Science Books, 1992, p. 20. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
