On the mean anomaly and the mean longitude in tests of post-Newtonian gravity
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 The distinction between the mean anomaly $${\mathcal {M}}(t)$$ M(t) and the mean anomaly at epoch $$\eta $$ η , and the mean longitude l(t) and the mean longitude at epoch $$\epsilon $$ ϵ is clarified in the context of a their possible use in post ...

Discussion on the orthometric height realization
Geodesy and Cartography, 2012 In the theory of the orthometric height, the mean value of gravity along the plumbline between the geoid and the earth's surface is defined as the integral mean. To determine the mean gravity from the gravity observations realized at the physical surface

Improved analysis of all-sky meteor radar measurements of gravity wave variances and momentum fluxes [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2013 The advantages of using a composite day analysis for all-sky interferometric meteor radars when measuring mean winds and tides are widely known. On the other hand, problems arise if this technique is applied to Hocking's (2005) gravity wave analysis ...

Inertia, gravity and the meaning of mass
Physica Scripta, 2023 Abstract Our concept of mass has evolved considerably over the centuries, most notably from Newton to Einstein, and then even more vigorously with the establishment of the standard model and the subsequent discovery of the Higgs boson. Mass is now invoked in various guises depending on the circumstance: it is used to represent inertia ...

Cumulative versus Gravity-based Accessibility Measures: Which One to Use?
Findings, 2022 This paper compares two popular approaches to calculate access to jobs by public transport: gravity and cumulative opportunities. Using data on commute patterns and public transport schedules from Montreal, Canada, we find cumulative opportunities-based ...

Long-term MST radar observations of vertical wave number spectra of gravity waves in the tropical troposphere over Gadanki (13.5° N, 79.2° E): comparison with model spectra [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2008 The potential utility of Mesosphere-Stratosphere-Troposphere (MST) radar measurements of zonal, meridional and vertical winds for divulging the gravity wave vertical wave number spectra is discussed. The data collected during the years 1995–2004

Determining mean and standard deviation of the strong gravity prior through simulations.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Humans expect downwards moving objects to accelerate and upwards moving objects to decelerate. These results have been interpreted as humans maintaining an internal model of gravity.
