a variant of equinoctial elements using the semilatus rectum and true longitude, nonsingular for all eccentricities and inclinations except retrograde equatorial orbits.

In astrodynamics, modified equinoctial elements refers to a variant of equinoctial elements using the semilatus rectum and true longitude, nonsingular for all eccentricities and inclinations except retrograde equatorial orbits. This meaning comes from Walker (1985) in Celestial Mechanics.[1]
