New Features
- Incorporation of SHTOOLS for incorporating gravitational harmonics coefficients into the central body gravity field calculations.
- Introduction of rotation matrix calculations for non-z-axis central body rotation vectors, supporting more accurate precession effects.
- Enhancement of the netCDF output capabilities, including the addition of dimension-coordinates for c_lm arrays and support for spherical harmonics parameters.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug that was causing the spin poles of massive bodies to be calculated incorrectly when pulling ephemerides from JPL/Horizons using swiftest.Simulation.add_solar_system_body
- Correction of various typos and minor bugs across the documentation and codebase, improving clarity and accuracy.
- Fixing of floating underflow errors and adjustments to normalization calculations to reduce computational errors.
Documentation
- Major updates to user guides and API documentation.
Breaking changes
- Support for
python 3.8has been dropped and the minimum versions of some dependencies were changed.
