% Computes the Earth greenwich matrix that transforms from ECI to EF. Any input of eOfECalc will cause it to include the equation of the equinoxes. Type EarthRot for a demo. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: [g, gMST, gAST] = EarthRot( T, eOfECalc ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ T (1,1) Julian centuries of 86400s dynamical time from j2000.0 eOfECalc (1,1) Calculate the equation of the equinoxes ------- Outputs ------- g (3,3) Greenwich matrix gMST (1,1) Greenwich mean sidereal time (deg) gAST (1,1) Greenwich apparent sidereal time (deg) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- See also: GMSTime, EOfE, JD2T -------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: Seidelmann, P.
