giant.catalogues.utilities.MAS2DEG¶
- giant.catalogues.utilities.MAS2DEG: float = 2.7777777777777776e-07¶
This constant converts from units of milli-arc-seconds to units of degrees through multiplication.
That is
angle_deg = angle_mas*MAS2DEG
whereangle_mas
is the angle in milli-arc-seconds andangle_deg
is the angle in degrees.Mathematically this is \(\frac{1}{3600000}\).
