-compute ​crossings of a Poincare section in a pre-computed trajectory+Compute ​crossings of a Poincare section in a pre-computed trajectory. The Poincare condition is %%(u(t) - ueqb, e) == 0%%, i.e. the displacement from a given point %%ueqb%% is orthogonal to a direction %%e%%. The program checks for changes in sign in the inner product in the stored trajectory (with large %%dT%%, and when it finds one, goes back and reintegrates with small %%dt%%, and then does quadratic interpolation when the fine-scale trajectory recrosses the section.
