The observation of minutes to hours of X-ray flashes after a short gamma-ray burst is consistent with small particles of a primary object like a neutron star initially swallowed by a black hole in less than two seconds, followed by some hours of lesser energy events, as remaining fragments of tidally-disrupted neutron star material ( no longer neutronium ) remain in orbit to spiral into the black hole, over a longer period of time.

That molecular gas occurs predominantly in the spiral arms argues that molecular clouds must form and dissociate on a timescale shorter than 10 million years — the time it takes for material to pass through the arm region.

In spiral galaxies, open clusters are largely found in the spiral arms where gas densities are highest and so most star formation occurs, and clusters usually disperse before they have had time to travel beyond their spiral arm.

The normal Archimedean spiral occurs when x = 1.

In disc phyllotaxis ( sunflower, daisy ), the mesh of spirals occurs in Fibonacci numbers because divergence ( angle of succession in a single spiral arrangement ) approaches the golden ratio.

When such an eruption occurs, charged particles from the flare may spiral towards earth arriving about a day later.

Since a supernova explosion roughly occurs in a typical spiral galaxy every 100 years, astronomers use high-resolution images of NGC 3982 and other galaxies to detect stars which are nearing a similar explosive descent into supernovae.

However, together, the subtalar facets form a screw or Archimedean spiral, right-handed in the right foot, about which subtalar motion occurs.

Wyatt and Whipple, 1950 ), which is a retardation of the orbital motion of particles by the relativistic aberration of the repulsive force of the impinging solar radiation, causes the dust to spiral into the sun in times much shorter than the age of the Earth.

ACE Inhibitors also reduce plasma norepinephrine levels and NE-induced vasoconstriction, only in heart failure patients, thus breaking the vicious circles of sympathetic and renin angiotensin system activation which sustains the downward spiral in cardiac function in congestive heart failure

< font face =" arial " color =" red "> Wire carrying current to be measured .</ font >< font face =" arial " color =" green "> Spring providing restoring force </ font > This illustration is conceptual ; in a practical meter, the iron core is stationary, and front and rear spiral springs carry current to the coil, which is supported on a rectangular bobbin.

In 1927, the Belgian Roman Catholic priest Georges Lemaître independently derived the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker equations and proposed, on the basis of the recession of spiral nebulae, that the universe began with the " explosion " of a " primeval atom "— which was later called the Big Bang.

Furthermore, the large elliptical galaxy and the edge-on spiral galaxy, both of which have active nuclei, are connected by a stream of stars and dust, indicating that they too are interacting.

Its spiral arms wind in both directions, which makes it nearly impossible for astronomers to determine the rotation of the galaxy.

A Solomonic column, sometimes called " barley sugar ", begins on a base and ends in a capital, which may be of any order, but the shaft twists in a tight spiral, producing a dramatic, serpentine effect of movement.

This trajectory culminates in Dead Ringers in which a twin pair of gynecologists spiral into codependency and drug addiction.

That can create a carry, which is why the arms move in a spiral.

Together with fellow staff-member Kent Ford, Rubin announced at a 1975 meeting of the American Astronomical Society the discovery that most stars in spiral galaxies orbit at roughly the same speed, which implied that their mass densities were uniform well beyond the locations with most of the stars ( the galactic bulge ), a result independently found in 1978.

Simple tubular uterine glands reach from the endometrial surface through to the base of the stroma, which also carries a rich blood supply of spiral arteries.

Increased use of the forward pass encouraged adoption of a narrower ball, starting with changes in the 1920s which enhanced rifled throwing and also spiral punting.

The propaganda of the Reds and Whites utilized the terror acts of the opponent effectively, which increased the local political violence and the spiral of revenge.

A rifle is so named for the spiral fluting carved into the inner surface of its barrel, which imparts a self-stabilizing spin to the single bullets it fires.

The key properties of disk galaxies, which are also commonly called spiral galaxies, is that they are very thin, rotate rapidly, and often show spiral structure.

He became a proponent of the so-called " island universes " hypothesis, which holds that spiral nebulae are actually independent galaxies.

This technique, which results in a spiral effect in the arch masonry, provides extra strength in the arch to compensate for the angled abutments.

The cutting action of the gimlet is slightly different from an auger, however, as the end of the screw, and so the initial hole it makes, is smaller ; the cutting edges pare away the wood which is moved out by the spiral sides, falling out through the entry hole.

In the spiral cutting process, the ham is firmly affixed, on the top and bottom, to a rotating base, which is gradually lowered as a blade is applied.

NGC 6925 is a barred spiral galaxy of apparent magnitude 11. 3 which is lens shaped as it lies almost edge on to us.

The Jets continued to spiral downward before enjoying a string of successes in the 1980s which, included an appearance in the 1982 AFC Championship Game.

Open clusters have been found only in spiral and irregular galaxies, in which active star formation is occurring.

Edison's early patents show that he also considered the idea that sound could be recorded as a spiral onto a disc, but Edison concentrated his efforts on cylinders, since the groove on the outside of a rotating cylinder provides a constant velocity to the stylus in the groove, which Edison considered more " scientifically correct ".

While recording or playing, the record not only rotated, but moved laterally under the stylus, which thus described a spiral, recording 150 grooves to the inch.
