giant.catalogues.utilities.DEG2RAD: float = 0.017453292519943295

This constant converts from units of degrees to units of radians through multiplication.

That is angle_rad = angle_deg*DEG2RAD where angle_rad is the angle in radians and angle_deg is the angle in degrees.

Mathematically this is \(\frac{\pi}{180}\).
