Concrete methods
Retrieves the leap second adjustment for the given absolute time.
Retrieves the leap second adjustment for the given absolute time.
Value parameters
- time
-
The absolute time for which to determine the leap second adjustment.
Attributes
- Returns
-
The leap second adjustment as a TimeFormat instance.
- Definition Classes
Determines if a given absolute time falls within a leap second.
Determines if a given absolute time falls within a leap second.
For time scales that don't use leap seconds (like TAI), this always returns false. For UTC, this would return true during leap second events.
Value parameters
- time
-
The absolute time to check
Attributes
- Returns
-
true if the time is inside a leap second, false otherwise
- Definition Classes
Duration of a minute in seconds. Default is 60 seconds for most time scales. May differ for specialized astronomical time scales.

Calculates the difference between this time scale and TAI at the given time.
Calculates the difference between this time scale and TAI at the given time.
Value parameters
- time
-
The absolute time to calculate the offset for
Attributes
- Returns
-
A TimeFormat representing the offset from TAI
- Definition Classes
Converts a date and time in this scale to the equivalent TAI time.
Converts a date and time in this scale to the equivalent TAI time.
This method iteratively converges on the correct offset using the timePastTAI function. It typically requires 3-4 iterations to converge with sufficient accuracy.
Value parameters
- date
-
The date component in this time scale
- time
-
The time component in this time scale
Attributes
- Returns
-
The offset to add to the input time to get TAI
- Definition Classes
Inherited methods
Returns the most recent leap second adjustment applied to this time scale.
Returns the most recent leap second adjustment applied to this time scale.
For time scales without leap seconds, this returns zero.
Attributes
- Returns
-
The most recent leap second adjustment as a TimeFormat

Gets the identifying name of this time scale.
Attributes
- Returns
-
