◆ planet_ephem_provider()

short planet_ephem_provider	(	double	jd_tdb,
		enum novas_planet	body,
		enum novas_origin	origin,
		double *	position,
		double *	velocity
	)

Major planet ephemeris data via the same generic ephemeris provider that is configured by set_ephem_provider() prior to calling this routine. This is the regular (reduced) precision version.

Parameters

	jd_tdb	[day] Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) based Julian date.
	body	Major planet number (or that for Sun, Moon, SSB...)
	origin	NOVAS_BARYCENTER (0) or NOVAS_HELIOCENTER (1) relative to which to report positions and velocities.
[out]	position	[AU] Position vector of 'body' at jd_tdb; equatorial rectangular coordinates in AU referred to the ICRS.
[out]	velocity	[AU/day] Velocity vector of 'body' at jd_tdb; equatorial rectangular system referred to the ICRS, in AU/day.

Returns: 0 if successful, or else an error code of solarsystem().

◆ planet_ephem_provider_hp()

short planet_ephem_provider_hp	(	const double	jd_tdb[2],
		enum novas_planet	body,
		enum novas_origin	origin,
		double *	position,
		double *	velocity
	)

Major planet ephemeris data via the same generic ephemeris provider that is configured by set_ephem_provider() prior to calling this routine. This is the highest precision version.

Parameters

	jd_tdb	[day] Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) based Julian date, split into high and low order components (e.g. integer and fractional parts) for high-precision calculations.
	body	Major planet number (or that for Sun, Moon, SSB...)
	origin	NOVAS_BARYCENTER (0) or NOVAS_HELIOCENTER (1) relative to which to report positions and velocities.
[out]	position	[AU] Position vector of 'body' at jd_tdb; equatorial rectangular coordinates in AU referred to the ICRS.
[out]	velocity	[AU/day] Velocity vector of 'body' at jd_tdb; equatorial rectangular system referred to the ICRS, in AU/day.

Returns: 0 if successful, or else an error code of solarsystem_hp().

◆ solarsystem()

short solarsystem	(	double	jd_tdb,
		short	body,
		short	origin,
		double *	position,
		double *	velocity
	)

A default implementation for regular (reduced) precision handling of major planets, Sun, Moon and the Solar-system barycenter. See DEFAULT_SOLSYS in Makefile to choose the implementation that is built into with the library as a default. Applications can define their own preferred implementations at runtime via set_planet_provider().

Since this is a function that may be provided by existing custom user implementations, we keep the original argument types for compatibility, hence 'short' instead of the more informative enums).

Parameters

	jd_tdb	[day] Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) based Julian date
	body	Major planet number (or that for the Sun, Moon, or an appropriate barycenter), as defined by enum novas_planet, e.g. NOVAS_MARS (4), NOVAS_SUN (10) or NOVAS_SSB (0). (For compatibility with existing NOVAS C compatible user implementations, we keep the original NOVAS C argument type here).
	origin	NOVAS_BARYCENTER (0) or NOVAS_HELIOCENTER (1) relative to which to return positions and velocities. (For compatibility with existing NOVAS C compatible user implementations, we keep the original NOVAS C argument type here).
[out]	position	[AU] Position vector of 'body' at 'tjd'; equatorial rectangular coordinates in AU referred to the mean equator and equinox of J2000.0.
[out]	velocity	[AU/day] Velocity vector of 'body' at 'tjd'; equatorial rectangular system referred to the mean equator and equinox of J2000.0, in AU/Day.

Returns: 0 if successful, -1 if there is a required function is not provided (errno set to ENOSYS), 1 if the input Julian date ('tjd') is out of range, 2 if 'body' is invalid, or 3 if the ephemeris data cannot be produced for other reasons.

◆ solarsystem_hp()

short solarsystem_hp	(	const double	jd_tdb[2],
		short	body,
		short	origin,
		double *	position,
		double *	velocity
	)

A default implementation for high precision handling of major planets, Sun, Moon and the Solar-system barycenter (and other barycenters). See DEFAULT_SOLSYS in Makefile to choose the implementation that is built into the library as a default. Applications can define their own preferred implementations at runtime via set_planet_provider_hp().

Since this is a function that may be provided by existing custom user implementations, we keep the original argument types for compatibility, hence 'short' instead of the more informative enums).

Parameters

	jd_tdb	[day] Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) based Julian date, broken into high and low order components, respectively. Typically, as the integer and fractional parts for the highest precision.
	body	Major planet number (or that for the Sun, Moon, or an appropriate barycenter), as defined by enum novas_planet, e.g. NOVAS_MARS (4), NOVAS_SUN (10) or NOVAS_SSB (0). (For compatibility with existing NOVAS C compatible user implementations, we keep the original NOVAS C argument type here).
	origin	NOVAS_BARYCENTER (0) or NOVAS_HELIOCENTER (1) relative to which to return positions and velocities. (For compatibility with existing NOVAS C compatible user implementations, we keep the original NOVAS C argument type here).
[out]	position	[AU] Position vector of 'body' at 'tjd'; equatorial rectangular coordinates in AU referred to the mean equator and equinox of J2000.0.
[out]	velocity	[AU/day] Velocity vector of 'body' at 'tjd'; equatorial rectangular system referred to the mean equator and equinox of J2000.0, in AU/Day.

Returns: 0 if successful, -1 if there is a required function is not provided (errno set to ENOSYS), or some other error code (NOVAS C was not very consistent here...)
