Properties for Delaunay elements
ArgOfPeriapsis | The angle from the ascending node to the eccentricity vector (lowest point of orbit) measured in the direction of the satellite's motion and in the orbit plane (g). Uses Angle Dimension. |
DelaunayG | The magnitude of the orbital angular momentum. Defined as sqrt(GM * p). Uses AreaRate Dimension. |
DelaunayH | The Z component of the orbital angular momentum. Defined as G cos(inc). Uses AreaRate Dimension. |
DelaunayL | Related to the two-body orbital energy. Defined as sqrt(GM * a). Uses AreaRate Dimension. |
Inclination | The angle between the angular momentum vector (perpendicular to the plane of the orbit) and the inertial Z axis. Uses Angle Dimension. |
MeanAnomaly | The angle from the eccentricity vector to a position vector where the satellite would be if it were always moving at its average angular rate (l). Uses Angle Dimension. |
RAAN | The angle from the inertial X axis to the ascending node measured in a right-handed sense about the inertial Z axis in the equatorial plane (h). Uses Angle Dimension. |
SemilatusRectum | Semi-latus Rectum. Uses Distance Dimension. |
SemiMajorAxis | One-half the distance along the long axis of the elliptical orbit. Uses Distance Dimension. |
