/** This class represents the gravitational field of a celestial body.
 * <p>
 * The algorithm implemented in this class has been designed by S. A. Holmes
 * and W. E. Featherstone from Department of Spatial Sciences, Curtin University
 * of Technology, Perth, Australia. It is described in their 2002 paper: <a
 * href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/226460594_A_unified_approach_to_the_Clenshaw_summation_and_the_recursive_computation_of_very_high_degree_and_order_normalised_associated_Legendre_functions">
 * A unified approach to he Clenshaw summation and the recursive computation of
 * very high degree and order normalised associated Legendre functions</a>
 * (Journal of Geodesy (2002) 76: 279–299).
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This model directly uses normalized coefficients and stable recursion algorithms
 * so it is more suited to high degree gravity fields than the classical Cunningham
 * Droziner models which use un-normalized coefficients.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Among the different algorithms presented in Holmes and Featherstone paper, this
 * class implements the <em>modified forward row method</em>. All recursion coefficients
 * are precomputed and stored for greater performance. This caching was suggested in the
 * paper but not used due to the large memory requirements. Since 2002, even low end
 * computers and mobile devices do have sufficient memory so this caching has become
 * feasible nowadays.

     * The derivatives should be computed with respect to position. The input
     * parameters already take into account the free parameters (6 or 7 depending
     * on derivation with respect to mass being considered or not) and order
     * (always 1). Free parameters at indices 0, 1 and 2 correspond to derivatives
     * with respect to position. Free parameters at indices 3, 4 and 5 correspond
     * to derivatives with respect to velocity (these derivatives will remain zero
     * as acceleration due to gravity does not depend on velocity). Free parameter
     * at index 6 (if present) corresponds to to derivatives with respect to mass
     * (this derivative will remain zero as acceleration due to gravity does not
     * depend on mass).
