IRCONV-Converts data in Janskys to W/m**2/um

Description:

IRCONV generates a spectrum in W/m**2/um, given a spectrum in some other units. At present, only Janskys, milli-Janskys and micro-Janskys can be handled.

Parameters:

SPECTRUM

A spectrum whose units are (currently) either Janskys, milli-Janskys, or micro-Janskys. It needs to be wavelength calibrated, in Angstroms or microns.

OUTPUT

The resulting spectrum, whose units will be W/m**2/um. It can be the same as SPECTRUM, in which case the conversion will be performed in situ.

Source comments:

 A B C O N V  /  F L C O N V  /  I R C O N V

 Converts a spectrum into AB magnitudes (ABCONV) or f-lambda
 units (ergs/sec/cm**2/A) (FLCONV), or W/m**2/um (IRCONV).
 The original units of the
 data may be Janskys, milli-Janskys, or micro-Janskys.  Other
 possibilities may be added later.

 Command parameters -

 SPECTRUM The name of the structure containing the spectrum.
          currently used for the spectrum.  For FLCONV
          an x-axis data structure giving the wavelengths of the
          data elements is also required.

 OUTPUT   The name of the result of the operation.  This can
          be the same as for SPECTRUM. If not, a new structure
          is created, with everything but the data a direct
          copy of the input.

 Command keywords  - None

 User variables used - None
