     1815There are two reference implementations for the code to account for the
    18161816motion of the Earth in space. The first are the sample routines
    18171817provided by the IERS to accompany chaper 5 of IERS Bulletin

    2673 \section{Atmospheric Dispersion}   
    2674 
    2675 The atmospheric dispersion is then
    2676 \begin{equation}
    2677 { \overline{(R- \bar R)^2}}  = {{\int (R - \bar R)^2 N_{\lambda} d \lambda} \over
    2678                            {\int N_{\lambda} d\lambda}}

    2681 \section{Air Mass and Extinction}   
     2672\subsubsection{Air Mass and Extinction}   
    26822673
    26832674By Laplace's theorem, the monochromatic airmass (mass per unit area
     
    27152706accurate expression for airmass should lead to improved extinction
    27162707corrections at high airmass. 
    2717 
    2718 \section{Limits to ground based relative and absolute astrometry}   
    2719 
    2720 The limits to ground based astrometry may well be our abilitiy to
    2721 measure the atmospheric profile along the line of sight of a given
    2722 observation, and the systematic limit of the telescope axes encoders
    2723 (and sophistication of the telescope mount model.)
    2724 The refratction model above requires only the additional data of
    2725 the temperature, height, and presure of the tropopause, but much more
    2726 detailed atmospheric information will be available for PS1 from our sky
    2727 probes which measure atmospheric absorption for each field and even,
    2728 phase drifts of GPS clocks from Rubidium or Cesium standard clocks.
    2729 These can be converted directly into a nearby line of sight index of refraction
    2730 at optical wavelengths. Thus we encourage wide field survey telescopes to
    2731 err on the side of over instrumenting the accuracy and repeatibility
    2732 of the axes encoders.
