| Description: sub_stellar_clock_angle is an angle measured at a point in the ring plane, from the direction toward a star to the local radial direction. This angle is projected into the ring plane and measured in the clockwise (retrograde) direction. Equivalently, this is the prograde angle from the local radial direction to the direction toward the star. For stellar occultation data, this angle is equal to (180 - OBSERVED_RING_AZIMUTH) mod 360. It is available only for backward compatibility with previously published Cassini VIMS occultation data analysis; observed_ring_azimuth is the preferred quantity for archiving. sub_stellar_clock_angle is an optional data table field for Cassini VIMS occultation data; not recommended for other occultation data. In a label, the min and max variation attributes are optional for Cassini VIMS occultation data; not recommended for other occultation data. |
