26 /** This interface represents space-dynamics aware events detectors.
27 *
28 * <p>It mirrors the {@link org.hipparchus.ode.events.ODEEventHandler
29 * ODEEventHandler} interface from <a href="https://hipparchus.org/">
30 * Hipparchus</a> but provides a space-dynamics interface to the
31 * methods.</p>
32 *
33 * <p>Events detectors are a useful solution to meet the requirements
34 * of propagators concerning discrete conditions. The state of each
35 * event detector is queried by the propagator from time to time, at least
36 * once every {@link #getMaxCheckInterval() max check interval} but it may
37 * be more frequent. When the sign of the underlying g switching function
38 * changes, a root-finding algorithm is run to precisely locate the event,
39 * down to a configured {@link #getThreshold() convergence threshold}. The
40 * {@link #getMaxCheckInterval() max check interval} is therefore devoted to
41 * separate roots and is often much larger than the {@link #getThreshold()
42 * convergence threshold}.</p>
43 *
44 * <p>The physical meaning of the g switching function is not really used
45 * by the event detection algorithms. Its varies from event detector to
46 * event detector. One example would be a visibility detector that could use the
47 * angular elevation of the satellite above horizon as a g switching function.
48 * In this case, the function would switch from negative to positive when the
49 * satellite raises above horizon and it would switch from positive to negative
50 * when it sets backs below horizon. Another example would be an apside detector
51 * that could use the dot product of position and velocity. In this case, the
52 * function would switch from negative to positive when the satellite crosses
53 * periapsis and it would switch from positive to negative when the satellite
54 * crosses apoapsis.</p>
55 *
56 * <p>When the precise state at which the g switching function changes has been
57 * located, the corresponding event is triggered, by calling the {@link
58 * EventHandler#eventOccurred(SpacecraftState, EventDetector, boolean) eventOccurred}
59 * method from the associated {@link #getHandler() handler}.
60 * The method can do whatever it needs with the event (logging it, performing
61 * some processing, ignore it ...). The return value of the method will be used by
62 * the propagator to stop or resume propagation, possibly changing the state vector.</p>
