Detailed Description

Structure container for the cartesian orbital elements, which are:

• the position vector $\mathbf{r}$ (UA),
• the velocity vector $\mathbf{v}$ (UA/day).

Note

For more information on orbital elements, refer to "Survey of Orbital Elements", by G. R. Hintz, Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics, Vol. 31, No. 3, May-June 2008.
