velocity dispersion in a sentence
Examples
- This second scenario appears to produce a dispersion of velocities for the fragments that is more closely matched to the measured velocity dispersion of the family members.
- A 2012 paper suggests an Sun may be present within the Trapezium, something that could explain the large velocity dispersion of the stars of the cluster.
- There is a tight correlation between the mass of the black hole and the velocity dispersion of the stars in the bulge, the M-sigma relation.
- An empirical correlation between the size of supermassive black holes and the stellar velocity dispersion \ sigma of a galaxy bulge is called the M-sigma relation.
- In 2015 a team at Keio University in Japan found a gas cloud ( CO-0.40-0.22 ) with very wide velocity dispersion.
- A closely related yet independent quantity is the group delay dispersion ( GDD ), defined such that group velocity dispersion is the group delay dispersion per unit length.
- Yet another model involves a dense stellar cluster undergoing core-collapse as the negative heat capacity of the system drives the velocity dispersion in the core to relativistic speeds.
- This problem applies only to Haumea itself; the orbital elements of all the other objects in the family require an initial velocity dispersion of ~ 140 m / s.
- In this alternative data compression method, information-rich portions of the data are dilated in a process that emulates the effect of group velocity dispersion on temporal signals.
- In 1983 this estimate was revised up to 2.1 Mpc by Ronald Buta and Marshall McCall using the general relation between the luminosity and velocity dispersion for elliptical galaxies.
