The keywords affected are CD1_1, CD1_2, CD2_1, and CD2_2. In what follows the keywords ESO.ADA.POSANG = A. Previous to 2008-11-03 the incorrect formula used to write the above keywords were: WRONG: before 2008-11-03T00:05:00.000 CDELTA1 = -2.956388483633E-05 CDELTA2 = +2.956388483633E-05 CD1_1 = +CDELTA1*cosA CD1_2 = -CDELTA2*sinA CD2_1 = +CDELTA1*sinA CD2_2 = +CDELTA2*cosA The correct formulas are: CORRECT: after 2008-11-03T00:05:00.000 CDELTA1 = -2.956388483633E-05 CDELTA2 = +2.956388483633E-05 CD1_1 = +CDELTA1*cosA CD1_2 = -CDELTA1*sinA CD2_1 = +CDELTA2*sinA CD2_2 = +CDELTA2*cosA Notice that 2.956388483633E-05 = 0.1064300/3600, is the value stored in the keyword ESO.INS.PIXSCALE.The CD keys have been repaired for the data in the archive but frames with HIERARCH ESO ADA POSANG not 0 and not 180, -180 being delivered before the fix might be affected.
How to correct ? Change the sign of CD1_2 and CD2_1 in all four fits extensions of the HAWKI frame.
