.. py:class:: PimientaPropagator

   Kepler solver for elliptic orbits based on a 15th
   order polynomial with accuracies around 10e-5 for elliptic case and 10e-13
   in the hyperbolic regime.

   .. rubric:: Notes

   This algorithm was developed by Pimienta-Peñalver and John L. Crassidis in
   their paper *Accurate Kepler Equation solver without trascendental function
   evaluations*. Original paper is on Buffalo's UBIR repository: http://hdl.handle.net/10477/50522
