Inertial Velocity Azimuth - the angle from the projection of north in the local horizontal plane to the inertial velocity vector, right handed.

BURNOUT_INERTIAL_HORIZONTAL_FLIGHT_PATH_ANGLE

Inertial Horizontal FPA - the angle from the local horizontal to the inertial velocity vector, positive towards radius. It is also 90 degrees minus vertical flight path angle.

DRY_MASS

Dry Mass - the mass of the spacecraft exclusive of propellant.

CD

Drag Coefficient (Cd) - the dimensionless drag coefficient associated with the drag area.

DRAG_AREA

Drag Area - the cross-sectional area of the spacecraft assumed perpendicular to the direction of motion, used for atmospheric drag calculations.

CR

Solar Radiation Pressure (Spherical) Coefficient (Cr) - the reflectivity of the spacecraft used for solar radiation pressure calculations, where 2.0 is fully reflective and 1.0 is not reflective at all.

SRP_AREA

Solar Radiation Pressure (Spherical) Area - the cross-sectional area of the spacecraft assumed perpendicular to the direction of solar radiation, used for solar radiation calculations.

CK

Radiation Pressure (Albedo/Thermal) Coefficient (Ck) - the reflectivity of the spacecraft used for central body radiation pressure (albedo / thermal pressure) calculations, where 2.0 is fully reflective and 1.0 is not reflective at all.

RADIATION_PRESSURE_AREA

Radiation Pressure (Albedo/Thermal) Area - the cross-sectional area of the spacecraft assumed perpendicular to the direction of central body radiation, used for central body radiation (albedo / thermal pressure) calculations.

K1

GPS Solar Radiation Pressure K1 - if you are using a non-spherical SRP model, this field defines the model’s K1 (scale) value.
