/**
 * Compute the probability of collision using the method described in : "Kyle Alfriend, Maruthi Akella, Joseph Frisbee, James
 * Foster, Deok-Jin Lee, and Matthew Wilkins. Probability of ProbabilityOfCollision Error Analysis. Space Debris, 1(1):21–35,
 * 1999.".
 * <p>It assumes :
 *     <ul>
 *         <li>Short encounter leading to a linear relative motion.</li>
 *         <li>Spherical collision object.</li>
 *         <li>Uncorrelated positional covariance.</li>
 *         <li>Gaussian distribution of the position uncertainties.</li>
 *         <li>Deterministic velocity i.e. no velocity uncertainties.</li>
 *         <li>Both objects are in circular orbits (eq 14).</li>
 *         <li>Probability density function is constant over the collision disk (eq 18).</li>
 *     </ul>
 * <p>
 * By assuming a constant probability density function over the collision circle this method will,
 * <b>most of the time</b>, give much higher probability of collision than other regular methods.
 * That is why it is qualified as a maximum probability of collision computing method.</p>
