Examples
pos = [6378.e3; 0; 0]; CL_fo_centralPot(pos) |  |  |
Potential due to gravity (central force)
pot = CL_fo_centralPot(pos [, mu])
Potential due to the central force.
By definition, the acceleration derived from the potential is +grad(potential).
Notes:
- The origin for the position vector must be the central body.
- The coordinates frame can be any frame.
See Force models for more details.
Position vector (from the central body) [m]. (3xN)
(optional) Gravitational constant [m^3/s^2]. Default value is %CL_mu. (1x1)
Potential [m^2/s^2]. (1xN)
