Sentences with phrase «spins precess»

Not exact matches

Not only does the axis precess (every 51,000 years), but the proximity of Jupiter offers a strong gravitational forcing function that modifies the eccentricity of its orbit and the obliquity (tilt) of the spin axis.

An important reason precessing jets were not discovered earlier is that 3 - D simulations of the region surrounding a rapidly spinning black hole require an enormous amount of computational power.

This current of heat creates a separation of electron spins that then diffuse through the Cu heat sink and affect the magnetization of a second ferromagnetic layer, CoFeB, causing the magnetization to tilt and then precess.

This study confirms that if tilted, disks change direction relative to the black hole, precessing around like a spinning top.

As the compact object spinned, it might have wobbled or precessed about its axis, like a child's top winding down.

The magnet causes the lone proton to «precess» like a spinning top, at a frequency that depends on its g - factor.
