<p>In NOVAS, the barycentric BCRS and the geocentric GCRS systems are effectively synonymous to ICRS, since the origin for positions and for velocities, in any reference system, is determined by the <code>observer</code> location, while aberration and gravitational deflection is included for apparent places only (as seen from the observer location).</p>
<p>Older catalogs, such as B1950 (FK4) or B1900 are just special cases of MOD (mean-of-date) coordinates for the B1950 and B1900 epochs, respectively.</p>
<p>TIRS (Terrestrial Intermediate Reference System) and its older equivalent PEF (Pseudo-Earth-Fixed) are not explicitly referenced in SuperNOVAS. But they can be thought of as a special case of ITRS (International Terrestrial Reference System) with DUT1 (= UT1-UTC), and the polar offsets (<em>dx</em>, <em>dy</em>) all set to zero.</p>
