Axis-aligned cylinder.
The cylinder is centered about the template parameter Axis.
For a cylinder along the x axis:
\[ (y - y_0)^2 + (z - z_0)^2 - R^2 = 0 \]
The axis-aligned cylinder is used to calculate a tolerance for the second-order coefficient on the quadratic equation, where a small value is approximately zero.
Basing the intersection tolerance on a particle traveling nearly parallel to the cylinder, the angle \(\theta \) between the particle's direction and the center axis of the cylinder needed to give an intersection distance of \( 1/\delta \) when a distance of 1 from the cylinder (or equivalently, an intersection of 1 when a distance \( \delta \) away) is
\[ \sin \theta = \frac{1}{1/\delta} \;. \]
Letting \( \mu = \cos \theta = \Omega \cdot t \) we have
\[ \mu^2 + \delta^2 = 1 \;. \]
The quadratic intersection for an axis-aligned cylinder where the particle is at \( R + \delta \) is
\[ 0 = ax^2 + bx + c = (1 - \mu^2)x^2 + 2 \sqrt{1 - \mu^2} (R + 1) x + (R + 1)^2 - R^2 \]
so the quadric coefficient when a particle is effectively parallel to a cylinder is:
\[ a = (1 - \mu^2) = \delta^2 \;. \]
Because a is calculated by subtraction, this puts a hard limit on the accuracy of the intersection distance: the default value of a=1e-10 corresponds to a tolerance of 1e-5, not the default tolerance 1e-8.
