- poliastro.twobody.sampling.sample_closed(min_nu, ecc, max_nu=None, num_values=100)¶
Sample a closed orbit
If
max_nu
is given, the sampling interval will go from the minimum to the maximum true anomaly in the direction of the orbit. If not given, it will do a full revolution starting in the minimum true anomaly.Notes
First sample the eccentric anomaly uniformly, then transform into true anomaly to minimize error in the apocenter, see https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a605040.pdf
