Private Attributes
fitting coefficients for distribution of squared angular momentum at pericenter
NumT	fitIntercept
	L_{min}^2 - estimated lower bound on angular momentum at pericenter passage (0 means a centrophilic orbit)

NumT	fitSlope
	slope of the regression L^2_{k} = L^2_{min} + slope*k/N_{peri} for k=1..N_{peri}

NumT	fitScatter
	scatter of points around the best-fit regression, normalized to the `typical' value (should generally be <0.5 for the regressionto be reliable)

NumT	fitSignificance
	difference of L_{min}^2 from zero, measured in `sigma's (if less than a few, probably the orbit is centrophilic)

NumT	Lcirc2
	approximate squared angular momentum of a circular orbit
