Detailed Description

This class implements a minor planet (an asteroid).

There are two main reasons for having a separate class from Planet:

Some of the code in this class is re-used from the parent Planet class.

Member Function Documentation

◆ setAbsoluteMagnitudeAndSlope()

void MinorPlanet::setAbsoluteMagnitudeAndSlope ( const float  magnitude,
const float  slope 
)

sets absolute magnitude (H) and slope parameter (G).

These are the parameters in the IAU's two-parameter magnitude system for minor planets. They are used to calculate the apparent magnitude at different phase angles.

Parameters
magnitudeAbsolute magnitude H
slopeSlope parameter G. This is usually [0..1], sometimes slightly outside. Allowed here [-1..2].

◆ setDiscoveryData()

void MinorPlanet::setDiscoveryData ( const QString &  date,
const QString &  name 
)
inline

set the discovery circumstances of minor body

Parameters
dateof discovery
nameof discoverer

◆ setMinorPlanetNumber()

void MinorPlanet::setMinorPlanetNumber ( int  number)

set the minor planet's number, if any.

The number should be specified as an additional parameter, as englishName is passed as a constant to Planet's constructor. The number can be set only once. Any further calls of this function will have no result.

◆ translateName()

void MinorPlanet::translateName ( const StelTranslator trans)
overridevirtual

sets the nameI18 property with the appropriate translation.

Function overridden to handle the problem with name conflicts.

Reimplemented from Planet.
