Detailed Description

Program to convert an input MJD, or GPS, time at the solar system barycentre to a GPS time at a detector.

Author: Matt Pitkin

This code will take in an MJD time in TDB, or a GPS-style time in TDB at the solar system barycentre and convert it to a GPS time at a given detector for a given sky position. The input detectors can be any of the standard acronyms for gravitational wave detectors, but can also include several radio telescopes (these use position information from TEMPO2):

the Robert C. Byrd Greeen Bank Telescope (GBT),
the Parkes Telescope (PKS),
the Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank (JBO),
the Arecibo Telescope (AO),
the Effelsberg 100m Radio Telescope (EFF),
the Nancay Decimetre Radio Telescope (NRT),
the Mount Pleasant Radio Observatory, Hobart (HOB),
the Hartebeesthoek Radio Astronomy Observatory (HART),
the Very Large Array (VLA),
and the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT).
