Orbit.location: Calculate location of a planet 'Orbit.location'

In RoundAndRound: Plot Objects Moving in Orbits

Description

Calculate location of a planet Orbit.location

Usage

Orbit.location(t, p.orb, a = 1, theta = 0, orig = c(0, 0), ab = 1)

Arguments

t	Time (day).
p.orb	Period of the orbit.
a	Radius or Semi-major of the orbit.
theta	angle in PCS.
orig	Reference orgin.
ab	Semi-major over semi-minor. ab=1 for a Ring.

Value

(x,y) in Cartesian Coordinate System.

Examples

tday = seq(0, 365, 30)
x=Orbit.location(t=tday, p.orb = 365, a=10)
plot(PCS2CCS(0:360, a=10), type='l')
plotplanet(orig=x, rad = .51)
grid()
