 *
 * definitions and remarks:
 * the osculating node and the osculating apogee are defined
 * as the orbital elements of the momentary lunar orbit.
 * their advantage is that when the moon crosses the ecliptic,
 * it is really at the osculating node, and when it passes
 * its greatest distance from earth it is really at the
 * osculating apogee. with the mean elements this is not
 * the case. (some define the apogee as the second focus of 
 * the lunar ellipse. but, as seen from the geocenter, both 
 * points are in the same direction.)
 * problems:
 * the osculating apogee is given in the 'New International
 * Ephemerides' (Editions St. Michel) as the 'True Lilith'.
 * however, this name is misleading. this point is based on
 * the idea that the lunar orbit can be approximated by an
 * ellipse. 
 * arguments against this: 
 * 1. this procedure considers celestial motions as two body
 *    problems. this is quite good for planets, but not for
 *    the moon. the strong gravitational attraction of the sun 
 *    destroys the idea of an ellipse.
 * 2. the NIE 'True Lilith' has strong oscillations around the
 *    mean one with an amplitude of about 30 degrees. however,
 *    when the moon is in apogee, its distance from the mean
 *    apogee never exceeds 5 degrees.
 * besides, the computation of NIE is INACCURATE. the mistake 
 * reaches 20 arc minutes.
 * According to Santoni, the point was calculated using 'les 58
 * premiers termes correctifs au Perigee moyen' published by
 * Chapront and Chapront-Touze. And he adds: "Nous constatons
 * que meme en utilisant ces 58 termes CORRECTIFS, l'erreur peut
 * atteindre 0,5d!" (p. 13) We avoid this error, computing the
 * orbital elements directly from the position and the speed vector.
 *
 * how about the node? it is less problematic, because we
 * we needn't derive it from an orbital ellipse. we can say:
 * the axis of the osculating nodes is the intersection line of
 * the actual orbital plane of the moon and the plane of the 
 * ecliptic. or: the osculating nodes are the intersections of
 * the two great circles representing the momentary apparent 
 * orbit of the moon and the ecliptic. in this way they make
 * some sense. then, the nodes are really an axis, and they
 * have no geocentric distance. however, in this routine
 * we give a distance derived from the osculating ellipse.
 * the node could also be defined as the intersection axis
 * of the lunar orbital plane and the solar orbital plane,
 * which is not precisely identical to the ecliptic. this 
 * would make a difference of several arcseconds.
 *
 * is it possible to keep the idea of a continuously moving
 * apogee that is exact at the moment when the moon passes
 * its greatest distance from earth?
 * to achieve this, we would probably have to interpolate between 
 * the actual apogees. 
 * the nodes could also be computed by interpolation. the resulting
 * nodes would deviate from the so-called 'true node' by less than
 * 30 arc minutes.
 *
 * sidereal and j2000 true node are first computed for the ecliptic
 * of epoch and then precessed to ecliptic of t0(ayanamsa) or J2000.
 * there is another procedure that computes the node for the ecliptic
 * of t0(ayanamsa) or J2000. it is excluded by
