/** Provider for additional derivatives.
*
* <p>
* In some cases users may need to integrate some problem-specific equations along with
* classical spacecraft equations of motions. One example is optimal control in low
* thrust where adjoint parameters linked to the minimized Hamiltonian must be integrated.
* Another example is formation flying or rendez-vous which use the Clohessy-Whiltshire
* equations for the relative motion.
* </p>
* <p>
* This interface allows users to add such equations to a {@link
* org.orekit.propagation.numerical.FieldNumericalPropagator numerical propagator} or a {@link
* org.orekit.propagation.semianalytical.dsst.FieldDSSTPropagator DSST propagator}. Users provide the
* equations as an implementation of this interface and register it to the propagator thanks to
* its {@link FieldAbstractIntegratedPropagator#addAdditionalDerivativesProvider(FieldAdditionalDerivativesProvider)}
* method. Several such objects can be registered with each numerical propagator, but it is
* recommended to gather in the same object the sets of parameters which equations can interact
* on each others states.
* </p>
* <p>
* This interface is the numerical (read not already integrated) counterpart of
* the {@link org.orekit.propagation.FieldAdditionalStateProvider} interface.
* It allows to append various additional state parameters to any {@link
* org.orekit.propagation.numerical.FieldNumericalPropagator numerical propagator} or {@link
* org.orekit.propagation.semianalytical.dsst.FieldDSSTPropagator DSST propagator}.
* </p>
