Nutation In Ecliptical Longitude (Δ_Ψ) and Right Ascension (Δ_RA) PHP Program by Jay Tanner
Date: ±Y m d	Time: H M S UT	±ΔT: H M S

Calendar Mode: Julian Gregorian

Elements
JD	General JD number for given date, time and ΔT
T	Time factor in Julian centuries reckoned from J2000.0, corresponding to JD
DegToRad	This is a conversion factor used to convert degrees into equivalent radians. We multiply degrees by this factor to obtain the equivalent angle expressed in radians. Not every programming language has functions to convert between radians and degrees.
w	Nutation series accumulator (arc seconds x 10000).
w1	Mean elongation of the moon from the sun.
w2	Mean solar anomaly.
w3	Mean lunar anomaly.
w4	Lunar argument of latitude.
w5	Longitude of ascending node of lunar orbit on the ecliptic as measured from the mean equinox of date.
dPsiDeg	Nutation in ecliptical longitude expressed in degrees.
