Returns

(gal_long, gal_lat)

  • gal_long: Galactic longitude | in radians
  • gal_lat: Galactic latitude | in radians

Arguments

  • $asc: Right ascension | in radians
  • $dec: Declination | in radians

The equatorial coordinates passed are assumed to be referred to the standard equinox of B1950.0.
