Jul 27, 2022 at 20:55 comment added JimB Not knowing the physics, I just tried separating the starting values of $\phi$dot1 and $phi$dot2 by a bit and hoped for the best. The only "1's" left are on the diagonal which just means the parameter estimators are perfectly correlated with themselves.

Jul 27, 2022 at 6:31 comment added MOOSE Thank you for this answer @JimB. ϕ1dot and ϕ2dot are supposed to capture a slow oscillation (precession) and fast oscillation (nutation) respectively. Could you briefly explain how you chose the initial values in the answer above? In the new correlation matrix I see several less ones than before, however there are some left. Do you still think the ansatz suffer from too many parameters? This post gained significantly more attention that I first anticipated, so I'm still digesting the load of good answers and comments i received.
