10 ** IAU 2006/2000A precession-nutation.

12 ** Given:
13 ** date1,date2 double TT as a 2-part Julian Date (Note 1)
14 **
15 ** Returned (function value):
16 ** double equation of the equinoxes (Note 2)
17 **
18 ** Notes:
19 **
20 ** 1) The TT date date1+date2 is a Julian Date, apportioned in any
21 ** convenient way between the two arguments. For example,
22 ** JD(TT)=2450123.7 could be expressed in any of these ways,
23 ** among others:
24 **
25 ** date1 date2
26 **
27 ** 2450123.7 0.0 (JD method)
28 ** 2451545.0 -1421.3 (J2000 method)
29 ** 2400000.5 50123.2 (MJD method)
30 ** 2450123.5 0.2 (date & time method)
31 **
32 ** The JD method is the most natural and convenient to use in
33 ** cases where the loss of several decimal digits of resolution
34 ** is acceptable. The J2000 method is best matched to the way
35 ** the argument is handled internally and will deliver the
36 ** optimum resolution. The MJD method and the date & time methods
37 ** are both good compromises between resolution and convenience.
38 **
39 ** 2) The result, which is in radians, operates in the following sense:
40 **
41 ** Greenwich apparent ST = GMST + equation of the equinoxes
42 **
43 ** Called:
44 ** eraAnpm normalize angle into range +/- pi
45 ** eraGst06a Greenwich apparent sidereal time, IAU 2006/2000A
46 ** eraGmst06 Greenwich mean sidereal time, IAU 2006

79 ** The ERFA version is intended to retain identical functionality to
80 ** the SOFA library, but made distinct through different function and
81 ** file names, as set out in the SOFA license conditions. The SOFA
82 ** original has a role as a reference standard for the IAU and IERS,

84 ** state. The ERFA version is not subject to this restriction and
85 ** therefore can be included in distributions which do not support the
86 ** concept of "read only" software.
87 **
88 ** Although the intent is to replicate the SOFA API (other than
89 ** replacement of prefix names) and results (with the exception of
90 ** bugs; any that are discovered will be fixed), SOFA is not
91 ** responsible for any errors found in this version of the library.
