ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The rigorous treatment of the mount geometry implements the algorithm described in
    P. T. Wallace, "A rigorous algorithm for telescope pointing",
    Proc. SPIE 4848, 125-136 (2002).

The names of the pointing terms, and the scheme used to build the names of harmonic
terms, were introduced by P. T. Wallace for the TPOINT telescope pointing analysis
system.

The Bayesian diagnostics follow
