Because the wires interact with one another through gravity, they can exchange orbital angular momentum between them, rather like the transfer of movement between the gear bearings and the axle of a bicycle.
This twisting characteristic, known as orbital angular momentum (OAM), has been exploited by researchers in the past, with some showing that it can be used to transmit 2.5 terabits of data per second — the carrying capacity of more than 66 DVDs — through an optical fibre.
Friedmann proved that for orbitals in which the electron whizzes around the nucleus with a lot of «angular momentum,» the ratio of the approximate and exact energies can be rewritten as the ratio of things called gamma functions.
Wolff and Patrone said: «If a fluid element has rotational and orbital components of angular momentum with respect to the inertially fixed point of a planetary system [the system barycentre] that are of opposite sign, then the element may have potential energy that could be released by a suitable flow.
