num00a(jdtt)
[SOFA] Returns the matrix for nutation for a given TT Julian Date
jdtt
, according to the IAU 2000A model. The result has
the same dimensions as jdtt
with two dimensions equal to
3 prefixed. The returned matrix m
can be used as follows:
v(true) = m v(mean)
where p-vector v(true)
is with
respect to the true equatorial triad of date and the p-vector
v(mean)
is with respect to the mean equatorial triad of date.
