Function astro::orbit::parabolic::true_anom_and_rad_vec [−] [src]

pub fn true_anom_and_rad_vec(t: f64, T: f64, q: f64) -> (f64, f64)

Computes the true anomaly and radius vector of a body in a parabolic orbit at a given time

Returns

(tru_anom, rad_vec)

true_anom: True anomaly of the body at time t | in radians
rad_vec : Radius vector of the body at time t | in AU

Arguments

t: Time of interest, in Julian (Ephemeris) day
T: Time of passage through the perihelion, in Julian (Ephemeris) day
q: Perihelion distance | in AU

Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. fn:) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: fn, mod, struct, enum, trait, type, macro, and const.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. vec -> usize or * -> vec)
