Function Documentation

double io::Corsika::CorsikaAzimuthToAuger	(	const double	corsikaAzimuth,
		const double	magneticFieldDeclination
	)

Returns the azimuth rotated from Corisika's system to Auger standard.

Rotate form the Corsika coordinate system to Auger standard. Auger places the x axis east and the y axis north. Corsika places the x axis in the magnetic north and the y axis west. Therefore, the geomagnetic field direction for the location and time of an event has to be taken into account for the correct transformation.

Auger uses the incomming direction, Corsika the outgoing direction. This adds 180 deg to the difference.

Note: The current value for the magnetic field rotation is valid for the southern site in 2002. The drift is around 2.5 degree in 20 years.

For info: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag-web 35S, 70W 2002-10-24) 4.19deg E changing by 0.13deg W per year 2016-10-24) 2.16deg E (+-0.37deg) changing by 0.15deg W per year

Magnetic field declination is now part of the det::Detector model.
