In 2006, a team of astronomers at LANL proposed a model to predict the likely date of pulsar glitches with observational data from the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. They used observations of the pulsar PSR J0537−6910, that is known to be a quasi-periodic glitching pulsar. [29] However, no general scheme for glitch forecast is known to date. [29]
In modern physical cosmology, the cosmological principle is the notion that the spatial distribution of matter in the universe is uniformly isotropic and homogeneous when viewed on a large enough scale, since the forces are expected to act equally throughout the universe on a large scale, and should, therefore, produce no observable inequalities in the large-scale structuring over the course ...
The cosmological constant was originally introduced in Einstein's 1917 paper entitled “The cosmological considerations in the General Theory of Reality”. [2] Einstein included the cosmological constant as a term in his field equations for general relativity because he was dissatisfied that otherwise his equations did not allow for a static universe: gravity would cause a universe that was ...
In March 2023, Quizlet started to incorporate AI features with the release "Q-Chat", a virtual AI tutor powered by OpenAI's ChatGPT API. [24] [25] [26] Quizlet launched four additional AI powered features in August 2023 to assist with student learning. [27] [28] In July 2024, Kurt Beidler, the former co-CEO of Zwift, joined Quizlet as the new ...
An intermediate-mass binary pulsar (IMBP) is a pulsar-white dwarf binary system with a relatively long spin period of around 10–200 ms consisting of a white dwarf with a relatively high mass of approximately . [7] The spin periods, magnetic field strengths, and orbital eccentricities of IMBPs are significantly larger than those of low mass binary pulsars (LMBPs). [7]
Density wave theory or the Lin–Shu density wave theory is a theory proposed by C.C. Lin and Frank Shu in the mid-1960s to explain the spiral arm structure of spiral galaxies. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The Lin–Shu theory introduces the idea of long-lived quasistatic spiral structure (QSSS hypothesis). [ 1 ]
The pulsar was discovered in 2024 using the MeerKAT radio telescope. [63] M62H has a rotational period of 3.70 milliseconds, meaning it completes 270 rotations per second (270 Hz). [65] Its planetary companion has a minimum mass of 2.5 M J and a median mass of 2.83 M J, assuming a mass of 1.4 M ☉ for the pulsar. Its minimum density is of 11 g ...
The period of the orbital motion is 7.75 hours, and the two neutron stars are believed to be nearly equal in mass, about 1.4 solar masses. Radio emissions have been detected from only one of the two neutron stars. The minimum separation at periastron is about 1.1 solar radii; the maximum separation at apastron is 4.8 solar radii. The orbit is ...
