Add in abillity and checks for reading in barycentric ecliptic orbit format #575

Closed mschwamb closed 1 year ago

mschwamb commented 1 year ago

Basically we want to duplicate the heliocentric formats already and checked by the reader and duplicate as BCART, BKEP, and BCOM - @matthewholman is working on the conversion/how to input that into ASSIST+REBOUND

The orbital elements required should be:

bary_keplerian_elements = ["ObjID", "a", "e", "inc", "node", "argPeri", "ma", "epochMJD_TDB"] bary_cometary_elements = ["ObjID", "q", "e", "inc", "node", "argPeri", "t_p", "epochMJD_TDB"] bary_cartesian_elements = ["ObjID", "x", "y", "z", "xdot", "ydot", "zdot", "epochMJD_TDB"]

Note - that this ticket only needs actioning once there is a pull request dealing with #454
