phase

command list , class list , introduction .
  PHASE N1 N2 Name ZERO PERIOD PDOT -- Sets phases on spectra.

  N1 -- First slot to set
  N2 -- Last slot to set
  Name- Name of phase e.g. 'Orbital phase'. Only the following 
        names will be correctly averaged in other routines and so
        only these are permitted inside 'phase'.

        'Orbital phase', 'Spin phase', 'Beat phase', 'Hump phase',
        'Phase1', 'Phase2', 'Phase3'. 

         O,S,B,H are accepted as short forms for the first 4, and 
         '1', '2' and '3' for the last 3. The name will be expanded
         out in each case.

  ZERO   -- Constant part of ephemeris (=phase 0)
  PERIOD -- Period in days. 
  PDOT   -- Quadratic term 

 The ephemeris used for the phases is set in the headers in case you
 forget what you did later. A suffix (O,S,B,H,1,2,3) is added to 
 distinguish between the various standard phases, so that ZeroO
 is the constant term of the orbital ephemeris.

This command belongs to the classes: headers and binary .
