The array stored in observation.hwp_angle (or returned by observation.get_pointings()) contains twice the hwp angle, this has a historical reason and it is related to the way the pointing was handled before. Should we reconsider this behavior, and return just the hwp angle? What do you think, @ziotom78 @sgiardie @nraffuzz @ggalloni? Btw, this is also relevant for the beam convolution module #170.
Also the documentation is not very clear on this aspect, and we should clarify this.
