class astropy.utils.iers.IERS_B(data=None, masked=False, names=None, dtype=None, meta=None, copy=True, rows=None, copy_indices=True, units=None, descriptions=None, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: IERS

IERS Table class targeted to IERS B, provided by IERS itself.

These are final values; see https://www.iers.org/IERS/EN/Home/home_node.html

Notes

If the package IERS B file (`iers.IERS_B_FILE) is out of date, a new version can be downloaded from iers.IERS_B_URL.

See read for instructions on how to read a pre-2023 style IERS B file (usually named eopc04_IAU2000.62-now).

classmethod read(file=None, readme=None, data_start=6)[source]#

Read IERS-B table from a eopc04.* file provided by IERS.

Parameters:

filestr: full path to ascii file holding IERS-B data. Defaults to package version, iers.IERS_B_FILE.
readmestr: full path to ascii file holding CDS-style readme. Defaults to package version, iers.IERS_B_README.
data_startint: Starting row. Default is 6, appropriate for standard IERS files.

Returns:

IERS_B class instance

Notes

To read a pre-2023 style IERS B file (usually named something like eopc04_IAU2000.62-now), do something like this example with an excerpt that is used for testing:

>>> from astropy.utils.iers import IERS_B
>>> from astropy.utils.data import get_pkg_data_filename
>>> old_style_file = get_pkg_data_filename(
...     "tests/data/iers_b_old_style_excerpt",
...     package="astropy.utils.iers")
>>> iers_b = IERS_B.read(
...     old_style_file,
...     readme=get_pkg_data_filename("data/ReadMe.eopc04_IAU2000",
...                                  package="astropy.utils.iers"),
...     data_start=14)

ut1_utc_source(i)[source]#: Set UT1-UTC source flag for entries in IERS table.
