Several notes n the table of differences of the nutation tables MHB2000 and IAU1980 (CPO_MHB). (Cyril Ron, October 2001, Paris) - The task has been initiated by the Christian's need of Christian to have the table of the CPO_MHB ( term by term ) for direct computation of the differences in the program for interpolation in the EOPC04 combinations. - The original tables and subroutines are available at Tom Herring's web site: http://bowie.mit.edu/~tah/mhb200 in two versions: - the pure MHB_2000 series - the fine tuned series MHB with fitted amplitudes of the 5 long-period terms from the observations of VLBI referred to as MHB_2000ft.series and MHB_2000ft.f. for more details, see the Tom Herring's web site. The unix script is prepared that compiles the table from the original Tom Herring's data sets. It can be used in compilation any more recent versions of the series. - The table MHB_2000.series doesn't contain the planetary terms which are included in the MHB_2000.f. The planetary terms were taken into the differences CPO_MHB without any change from MHB_2000.f. On the other hand the file MHB_2000.series contains several secular rates of the out-of-phase terms that are not included in the tables in the subroutine MHB_2000.f due to their small values (3mus/cy) (see the e-mail of Tom Herring). . >Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2001 10:16:49 -0400 (EDT) . >From: Tom Herring . >To: Cyril RON . >Subject: Re: mhb_2000.f ? . . Hello Cyril: . . The secular rates on the out-of-phase terms are derived from the secular . rates for the rigid nutation series propagated through the complex . transferr function. These are in the table for completenss but since the . largest rate is 3 micro-asec/century we did not add them the computation . of the series. MHB2000 was meant to be used over intervals of 20-30 yrs . (around J2000) in which case these terms will not exceed 1 micro-arc-sec. . For the long period variations we think the accuracy of MHB2000 is in the . 10's of uas range. They do not appear in the internal tables used by . MBH2000 but rather are only output in the table form. . . Regards Tom Herring. . . --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .

To imply them, see MHB_2000.f. - The different values of fundamental arguments used in the MHB_2000 and IAU1980, respectively, evoke the out-of-term that reach the value 0.0175mas in case of the semiannual term in dpsi. dpsi_MHB and deps_MHB are the amplitudes in MHB2000, dpsi_IAU80 and deps_IAU80 are the amplitudes in IAU1980. The fundamental arguments of MHB2000 are referred as to a+bt. da and db are the differencesof the constant and secular terms of the fundamental arguments used in MHB2000 and IAU1980. dpsi_MHB * sin(a+bt) - dpsi_IAU80 * sin[(a+bt)+(da+dbt)] => in-phase term: (dpsi_MHB-dpsi_IAU80) * sin(a+bt) ot-of-phase : - dpsi_IAU80*da * cos(a+bt) - - dpsi_IAU80*db*t * cos(a+bt) and for deps similarly deps_MHB * cos(a+bt) - deps_IAU80 * cos[(a+bt)+(da+dbt)] => in-phase term: (deps_MHB-deps_IAU980) * cos(a+bt) out-of-phase : + deps_IAU80*da * sin(a+bt) + + deps_IAU80*db*t * sin(a+bt) Table of the out of phase terms evoked by the differences in the fundamental arguments [in .1 mus] dpsi*cos deps*sin l l' F D Om B d/dt B d/dt 0 0 0 0 1 -98 32 -53 4 0 0 0 0 2 2 0 1 0 -2 0 2 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 -2 2 -175 34 -76 7 0 1 0 0 0 34 -16 -1 5 0 1 2 -2 2 -19 3 -8 1 0 -1 2 -2 2 -2 0 -1 -1 0 0 2 -2 1 2 0 1 0 2 0 0 -2 0 1 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 2 2 -2 2 -1 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 2 -17 8 -7 2 1 0 0 0 0 5 2 0 0 0 0 2 0 1 -3 2 -1 1 1 0 2 0 2 -4 0 -2 0 1 0 0 -2 0 -2 -1 0 0 -1 0 2 0 2 0 -1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 2 2 2 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 0 1 -1 0 0 0 1 0 2 -2 2 1 0 0 0 2 0 2 0 2 -1 0 0 0 -------------------------------------------------------------- - The fundamental arguments follow: **** DATA statements for the fundamental arguments. **** (extracted from the MHB2000.f) * Simon et al.
