# Glossary and formula conventions
|
|
|
|
English | [简体中文](./glossary.zh.md)
|
|
|
|
This file fixes how a technical term is rendered in a comment and how a
|
|
formula is written. Follow it when translating a comment.
|
|
|
|
## The principle
|
|
|
|
**A term with an established Chinese name uses that name in the Chinese
|
|
paragraph.** The vocabulary of the field already has one, so the Chinese
|
|
paragraph uses it directly and does not append the English each time. The
|
|
English paragraph is unchanged, and the two sit side by side, so a reader may
|
|
read either.
|
|
|
|
**A proper name, an abbreviation, a person's name, a model or a method keeps
|
|
its English form.** Those appear in the original sources only, the ITU-R
|
|
recommendations, the NASA orbital mechanics literature and the Rust standard
|
|
library, and translating them would leave a reader unable to find the source.
|
|
|
|
## Terms that keep their English form
|
|
|
|
| English | Kind | Notes |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| SGP4, SDP4 | model | the orbit propagators |
|
|
| Hermite | name | the interpolation polynomial |
|
|
| Walker | name | the constellation pattern |
|
|
| Newton | name | the iteration |
|
|
| Runge-Kutta | name | the integrator |
|
|
| Vandermonde | name | the interpolation matrix |
|
|
| Hohmann | name | the transfer orbit |
|
|
| TLE, BSTAR | format and field | the element set and one of its fields |
|
|
| ECI, ECEF, TEME, ITRF, GCRS, ERA, GAST | abbreviation | frames and Earth rotation quantities |
|
|
| Isp, TAI, UTC, UT1, MJD, JD | abbreviation | specific impulse and time scales |
|
|
| TUMIN, XKE, X2O3 | symbol | internal model quantities |
|
|
| EIRP, C/N0 | abbreviation | link figures |
|
|
| delta-v | idiomatic | velocity increment, also written Δv in Chinese |
|
|
|
|
These stay as they are in the Chinese paragraph too.
|
|
|
|
## Terms that use their standard Chinese name
|
|
|
|
The Chinese paragraph uses the Chinese directly, with no English appended:

## Formulas
|
|
|
|
- A formula is kept as it stands: not rewritten, not simplified, not completed.
|
|
- A formula in a comment must agree with the code. Changing the code means
|
|
changing the comment in the same edit.
|
|
- A variable, function, field or module name keeps its English form.
|
|
- An inline formula is written as code, `` `a (1 - e^2)` ``. A formula that
|
|
needs several lines goes in a `/// ```text` block.
|
|
- A unit goes in parentheses after the quantity, as in `半长轴,单位为千米`.
|
|
|
|
## The layout of a comment
|
|
|
|
The English and the Chinese of one passage are separated by an empty `///`
|
|
line, English first:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
/// Returns the phase offset applied between adjacent planes, in radians.
|
|
///
|
|
/// This is `f * 360 / t` degrees, where `f` is the phase factor and `t`
|
|
/// the total satellite count.
|
|
///
|
|
/// 返回相邻轨道面之间施加的相位偏移,单位为弧度。
|
|
///
|
|
/// 即 `f * 360 / t` 度,其中 `f` 为相位因子,`t` 为卫星总数。
|
|
```
