Detailed_Input

     HANDLE   is the handle of the CK file to which the segment will
              be written. The file must have been opened with write
              access.

     BEGTIM   is the beginning encoded SCLK time of the segment. This
              value should be less than or equal to the first START
              time in the segment.

     ENDTIM   is the encoded SCLK time at which the segment ends.
              This value should be greater than or equal to the last
              STOP time in the segment.

     INST     is the NAIF integer ID code for the instrument.

     REF      is a character string that specifies the
              reference frame of the segment. This should be one of
              the frames supported by the SPICELIB routine NAMFRM
              which is an entry point to FRAMEX.

     SEGID    is the segment identifier. A CK segment identifier may
              contain up to 40 characters.

     NREC     is the number of pointing intervals that will be
              written to the segment.

     START    are the start times of each interval in encoded
              spacecraft clock. These times must be strictly
              increasing.

     STOP     are the stop times of each interval in encoded
              spacecraft clock. These times must be greater than
              the START times that they correspond to but less
              than or equal to the START time of the next interval.

     QUATS    is an array of SPICE-style quaternions representing
              the C-matrices associated with the start times of each
              interval. See the discussion of quaternion styles in
              $Particulars below.

     AVVS     are the angular velocity vectors for each interval.

     RATES    are the number of seconds per encoded spacecraft clock
              tick for each interval.

              In most applications this value will be the same for
              each interval within a segment. For example, when
              constructing a predict C-kernel for Mars Observer, the
              rate would be 1/256 for each interval since this is
              the smallest time unit expressible by the MO clock. The
              nominal seconds per tick rates for Galileo and Voyager
              are 1/120 and 0.06 respectively.

Detailed_Output

     None. See $Files section.

Parameters

     None.

Files

     This routine adds a type 2 segment to a C-kernel. The C-kernel
     may be either a new one or an existing one opened for writing.

Particulars

     For a detailed description of a type 2 CK segment please see the
     CK Required Reading.

     This routine relieves the user from performing the repetitive
     calls to the DAF routines necessary to construct a CK segment.


     Quaternion Styles
     -----------------

     There are different "styles" of quaternions used in
     science and engineering applications. Quaternion styles
     are characterized by

     -  The order of quaternion elements

     -  The quaternion multiplication formula

     -  The convention for associating quaternions
        with rotation matrices

     Two of the commonly used styles are

        - "SPICE"

           > Invented by Sir William Rowan Hamilton
           > Frequently used in mathematics and physics textbooks

        - "Engineering"

           > Widely used in aerospace engineering applications


     SPICELIB subroutine interfaces ALWAYS use SPICE quaternions.
     Quaternions of any other style must be converted to SPICE
     quaternions before they are passed to SPICELIB routines.


     Relationship between SPICE and Engineering Quaternions
     ------------------------------------------------------

     Let M be a rotation matrix such that for any vector V,

        M*V

     is the result of rotating V by theta radians in the
     counterclockwise direction about unit rotation axis vector A.
     Then the SPICE quaternions representing M are

        (+/-) (  cos(theta/2),
                 sin(theta/2) A(1),
                 sin(theta/2) A(2),
                 sin(theta/2) A(3)  )

     while the engineering quaternions representing M are

        (+/-) ( -sin(theta/2) A(1),
                -sin(theta/2) A(2),
                -sin(theta/2) A(3),
                 cos(theta/2)       )

     For both styles of quaternions, if a quaternion q represents
     a rotation matrix M, then -q represents M as well.

     Given an engineering quaternion

        QENG   = ( q0,  q1,  q2,  q3 )

     the equivalent SPICE quaternion is

        QSPICE = ( q3, -q0, -q1, -q2 )


     Associating SPICE Quaternions with Rotation Matrices
     ----------------------------------------------------

     Let FROM and TO be two right-handed reference frames, for
     example, an inertial frame and a spacecraft-fixed frame. Let the
     symbols

        V    ,   V
         FROM     TO

     denote, respectively, an arbitrary vector expressed relative to
     the FROM and TO frames. Let M denote the transformation matrix
     that transforms vectors from frame FROM to frame TO; then

        V   =  M * V
         TO         FROM

     where the expression on the right hand side represents left
     multiplication of the vector by the matrix.

     Then if the unit-length SPICE quaternion q represents M, where

        q = (q0, q1, q2, q3)

     the elements of M are derived from the elements of q as follows:

          .-                                                         -.
          |           2    2                                          |
          | 1 - 2*( q2 + q3 )   2*(q1*q2 - q0*q3)   2*(q1*q3 + q0*q2) |
          |                                                           |
          |                                                           |
          |                               2    2                      |
      M = | 2*(q1*q2 + q0*q3)   1 - 2*( q1 + q3 )   2*(q2*q3 - q0*q1) |
          |                                                           |
          |                                                           |
          |                                                   2    2  |
          | 2*(q1*q3 - q0*q2)   2*(q2*q3 + q0*q1)   1 - 2*( q1 + q2 ) |
          |                                                           |
          `-                                                         -'

     Note that substituting the elements of -q for those of q in the
     right hand side leaves each element of M unchanged; this shows
     that if a quaternion q represents a matrix M, then so does the
     quaternion -q.

     To map the rotation matrix M to a unit quaternion, we start by
     decomposing the rotation matrix as a sum of symmetric
     and skew-symmetric parts:

                                        2
        M = [ I  +  (1-cos(theta)) OMEGA  ] + [ sin(theta) OMEGA ]

                     symmetric                   skew-symmetric


     OMEGA is a skew-symmetric matrix of the form

                   .-             -.
                   |  0   -n3   n2 |
                   |               |
         OMEGA  =  |  n3   0   -n1 |
                   |               |
                   | -n2   n1   0  |
                   `-             -'

     The vector N of matrix entries (n1, n2, n3) is the rotation axis
     of M and theta is M's rotation angle. Note that N and theta
     are not unique.

     Let

        C = cos(theta/2)
        S = sin(theta/2)

     Then the unit quaternions Q corresponding to M are

        Q = +/- ( C, S*n1, S*n2, S*n3 )

     The mappings between quaternions and the corresponding rotations
     are carried out by the SPICELIB routines

        Q2M {quaternion to matrix}
        M2Q {matrix to quaternion}

     M2Q always returns a quaternion with scalar part greater than
     or equal to zero.


     SPICE Quaternion Multiplication Formula
     ---------------------------------------

     Given a SPICE quaternion

        Q = ( q0, q1, q2, q3 )

     corresponding to rotation axis A and angle theta as above, we can
     represent Q using "scalar + vector" notation as follows:

        s =   q0           = cos(theta/2)

        v = ( q1, q2, q3 ) = sin(theta/2) * A

        Q = s + v

     Let Q1 and Q2 be SPICE quaternions with respective scalar
     and vector parts s1, s2 and v1, v2:

        Q1 = s1 + v1
        Q2 = s2 + v2

     We represent the dot product of v1 and v2 by

        <v1, v2>

     and the cross product of v1 and v2 by

        v1 x v2

     Then the SPICE quaternion product is

        Q1*Q2 = s1*s2 - <v1,v2>  + s1*v2 + s2*v1 + (v1 x v2)

     If Q1 and Q2 represent the rotation matrices M1 and M2
     respectively, then the quaternion product

        Q1*Q2

     represents the matrix product

        M1*M2

Examples

     The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
     platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
     input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
     specific arithmetic implementation.

     1) The following example creates a CK file with a type-2 segment,
        with data for a simple time dependent rotation and angular
        velocity.

Version

    SPICELIB Version 3.0.1, 26-MAY-2021 (JDR)

        Edited the header to comply with NAIF standard. Created
        complete code example from existing fragment.

        Updated Exception #12 to describe the actual check and error
        produced by this routine.

    SPICELIB Version 3.0.0, 01-JUN-2010 (NJB)

        The check for non-unit quaternions has been replaced
        with a check for zero-length quaternions.

    SPICELIB Version 2.2.0, 26-FEB-2008 (NJB)

        Updated header; added information about SPICE
        quaternion conventions.

        Minor typo in a long error message was corrected.

    SPICELIB Version 2.1.0, 22-FEB-1999 (WLT)

        Added check to make sure that all quaternions are unit
        length to single precision.

    SPICELIB Version 2.0.0, 28-DEC-1993 (WLT)

        The routine was upgraded to support non-inertial reference
        frames.

    SPICELIB Version 1.1.1, 05-SEP-1993 (KRG)

        Removed all references to a specific method of opening the CK
        file in the $Brief_I/O, $Detailed_Input, $Exceptions,
        $Files, and $Examples sections of the header. It is assumed
        that a person using this routine has some knowledge of the DAF
        system and the methods for obtaining file handles.

    SPICELIB Version 1.1.0, 25-NOV-1992 (JML)

        1) If the number of pointing records is not positive an error
           is now signaled.

        2) FAILED is checked after the call to DAFBNA.

        3) The variables HLDBEG and HLDEND were removed from the loop
           where the interval start and stop times are tested.

    SPICELIB Version 1.0.1, 10-MAR-1992 (WLT)

        Comment section for permuted index source lines was added
        following the header.
