pint.utils.get_conjunction
- pint.utils.get_conjunction(coord: SkyCoord, t0: Time, precision: Literal['low', 'high'] = 'low', ecl: str = 'IERS2010') Time[source]
Find first time of Solar conjuction after t0 and approximate elongation at conjunction
Offers a low-precision version (based on analytic expression of Solar longitude) Or a higher-precision version (based on interpolating
astropy.coordinates.get_sun())- Parameters:
coord (astropy.coordinates.SkyCoord) –
t0 (astropy.time.Time) –
precision (str, optional) – “low” or “high” precision
ecl (str, optional) – Obliquity for PulsarEcliptic coordinates
- Returns:
astropy.time.Time – Time of conjunction
astropy.units.Quantity – Elongation at conjunction
