Equinoctial Elements is a set of orbital elements that parameterize the shape, size, and orientation of an orbit using a singularity-free formulation at zero inclination, distinguished from classical orbital elements by employing the longitude of the ascending node, the argument of perigee, and the mean longitude at epoch in a way that avoids numerical instabilities near equatorial orbits.
