public class CircularParameters
extends AbstractOrbitalParameters
```
This class handles circular orbital parameters.
The parameters used internally are the circular elements which can be related to keplerian elements as follows:
- a
- e_x = e cos(ω)
- e_y = e sin(ω)
- i
- Ω
- α_v = v + ω
where Ω stands for the Right Ascension of the Ascending Node and α_v stands for the true latitude argument

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. equinoctial parameters is the recommended way to represent orbits.
