The notion is presented that fitting galaxy rotation curves is possible without the invocation of dark matter. Equations of motion similar to those used to describe the internal motions of terrestrial weather systems are applied to the rotation curves of galaxies. However, due to the four-dimensional nature of the equations, additional terms arise. One of these additional terms is particularly ...

Detailed neutral hydrogen observations have been obtained of the large barred spiral galaxy NGC 3992 and its three small companion spiral galaxies, UGC 6923, UGC 6940, and UGC 6969. Contrary to the large galaxy, for the companions the H i distribution ends quite abruptly at the optical edges. Velocity fields have been constructed from which rotation curves have been derived. Assuming a reasonab...

Pelvic rotation (PR) is commonly seen in patients with idiopathic scoliosis (IS), but factors contributing to this phenomenon and its relationship with the surgical outcome are not well established.This retrospective study included 85 IS patients in 2 groups: thoracic curve dominance group (group A) and lumbar curve dominance group (group B). Pre- and postoperative PR was measured on standing p...

Gesture language is considered as secondary language for most of people and main language for hearing impaired people, it is considered as international non-spoken language that make the understanding between different tongues possible regardless which country is this, it is also considered the first language that can be act for children in which they express they need in a movement. There are ...

STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. PURPOSE To determine the effect and direction of direct vertebral rotation (DVR) in the lowest instrumented vertebra (LIV) on the uninstrumented lumbar curve depending on the lumbar modifier used for the correction of thoracic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE DVR in the LIV should be implemented in a different direction to obtain bett...

This paper addresses the problem of determining the symmetries of a plane or space curve defined by a rational parametrization. We provide effective methods to compute the involution and rotation symmetries for the planar case. As for space curves, our method finds the involutions in all cases, and all the rotation symmetries in the particular case of Pythagorean-hodograph curves. Our algorithm...

We emphasize the use of high-resolution CO line observations to derive central rotation curves of galaxies. We present an example for high-resolution interferometer observations of NGC 3079, and discuss the PV diagram and derived rotation curve. The CO central rotation curves are combined with the outer curves from Hα and HI-line observations to obtain total RC. We show that well resolved RCs f...

Fitting, Wedell and Allen (2007) demonstrated that although memory for location within a small two-dimensional task field is largely independent of cues when orientation is fixed, it is highly dependent on cues when orientation varies by rotating the task field on a majority of trials. Their analysis focused only on 0 rotation trials. The current investigation aimed to understand the spatial es...

The method of constructing of rotation curve for our galactic disk is developed. Simple physical model shows that the velocity of the Sun around the center of the Galaxy must be less than currently accepted IAU value 220 km/s. Independently obtained result for neutral hydrogen (λ = 21.1 cm) confirms the previous statement. The values of the Sun’s velocity is about 110 km/s. As a consequence, th...

STUDY DESIGN Level 4 retrospective review. PURPOSE Brace treatment is the standard nonoperative treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Rotation correction is also important, because AIS involves a rotation deformity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of rotation correction after Osaka Medical College (OMC) brace treatment on clinical outcomes in AIS. OVERVIE...
