/**
 * This class handles circular orbital parameters.

 * <p>
 * The parameters used internally are the circular elements which can be
 * related to Keplerian elements as follows:
 *   <ul>
 *     <li>a</li>
 *     <li>e<sub>x</sub> = e cos(ω)</li>
 *     <li>e<sub>y</sub> = e sin(ω)</li>
 *     <li>i</li>
 *     <li>Ω</li>
 *     <li>α<sub>v</sub> = v + ω</li>
 *   </ul>
 * where Ω stands for the Right Ascension of the Ascending Node and
 * α<sub>v</sub> stands for the true latitude argument
 *
 * <p>
 * The conversion equations from and to Keplerian elements given above hold only
 * when both sides are unambiguously defined, i.e. when orbit is neither equatorial
 * nor circular. When orbit is circular (but not equatorial), the circular
 * parameters are still unambiguously defined whereas some Keplerian elements
 * (more precisely ω and Ω) become ambiguous. When orbit is equatorial,
 * neither the Keplerian nor the circular parameters can be defined unambiguously.
 * {@link EquinoctialOrbit equinoctial orbits} is the recommended way to represent
 * orbits.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The instance <code>CircularOrbit</code> is guaranteed to be immutable.
