coordinate systems
result = kdisterr(l, vlow, vhigh [, RADIANS=RADIANS] [, SILENT=SILENT])
This routine uses kdist.pro to do all of the work
This only works for objects with latitudes between 270 degrees and 90 degrees, for which there are two possible kinematic distances
Return value
A 4 element vector. The first and third elements give the near and far kinematic distances in kpc, while the second and fourth give error estimates.
Parameters
- l in required
The galactic longitude of the source given in degrees (or radians, if /RADIANS is set)
- vlow in required
The lower bound for the radial velocity estimate, in km/s
- vhigh in required
The uppper bound for the radial velocity estimate, in km/s
Keywords
- RADIANS in optional
If set, l is given in radians
- SILENT in optional
If set, textual summary of the results are suppressed
