LeapSeconds.offset_tai_utc — Function

offset_tai_utc(tai1, tai2=0.0)

Returns the difference between International Atomic Time (TAI) and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for a given TAI Julian day number tai1 (optionally split into two parts for increased precision).

$\Delta AT = TAI - UTC$

LeapSeconds.offset_utc_tai — Function

offset_utc_tai(utc1, utc2=0.0)

Returns the difference between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and International Atomic Time (TAI) for a given UTC pseudo-Julian day number utc1 (optionally split into two parts for increased precision).

$\Delta AT = UTC - TAI$

Note

This function uses the ERFA convention for Julian day numbers representing UTC dates during leap seconds.

LeapSeconds.offset_utc_tai — Method

offset_utc_tai(dt::DateTime)

Returns the difference between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and International Atomic Time (TAI) for a given DateTime in UTC.

$\Delta AT = UTC - TAI$

Warning

The DateTime type from Julia's Standard Libary cannot represent UTC dates during leap seconds, e.g. "2016-12-31T23:59:60.0" will not be parsed as a valid DateTime but throw an error. The AstroTime.jl package provides a leap second-aware Epoch type that can be used as a replacement.
