A SEARCH FOR JUPITER-MASS COMPANIONS TO NEAR
... We should be able to relate the F -test results to the correlated periodogram results since the two statistics are so closely related (see Eq. (A3)). The correlated periodogram evaluated at a period of 100 yr ranges from 5.2 for Cep (see Figure 3) to 7.4 for Boo A. None of the corresponding peri ...

WVU astrophysicist part of research team that proves Einstein

If Einstein had been wrong, the pulsar wouldnít be precessing or would precess in some other way. Pulsars are too small and too distant to observe their orientation dire ...

The Kerr-Metric: describing Rotating Black Holes

Not even light could escape from such an object: it would appear black. In 1915 Einstein published his famous theory of general re ...
