Observations

Waugh would later write that the observations indicated that peak "b" was higher than Kangchenjunga, but given the great distance of the observations, closer observations were required for verification.

On-the-ground, real-time observations from PG&E’s Wildfire Safety Operations Center and observations from PG&E field crews.

We launched the website, to provide a simple, but advanced platform that integrates coral observations made by residents and visitors with observations made from the air and Earth orbit.

Additional support for focusing of the output of GRBs has come from observations of strong asymmetries in the spectra of nearby type Ic supernova Mazzali 2005 and from radio observations taken long after bursts when their jets are no longer relativistic.

Based on the observations that Mariner 6 made, Mariner 7 was reprogrammed in flight to take further observations of areas of interest and actually returned more pictures than Mariner 6, despite the battery's failure.

For a long time, this meant that to test BBN theory against observations one had to ask: can all of the light element observations be explained with a single value of the baryon-to-photon ratio?

He regarded the observations of spiritual research as more dependable (and above all, consistent) than observations of physical reality.

He was able to make observations in polarized light, and his microscope was equipped with a hot stage (sample holder equipped with a heater) enabling high temperature observations.

His observations on eclipses were still used centuries later in Simon Newcomb 's investigations on the motion of the Moon, while his other observations inspired Laplace 's Obliquity of the Ecliptic and Inequalities of Jupiter and Saturn.

However, when Cassini made targeted observations of the putative ring plane from several angles, no evidence of ring material was found, suggesting that another explanation for the earlier observations is needed.

If the laws of physics agree more accurately with observations in a model with rotation than without it, we are inclined to select the best-fit value for rotation, subject to all other pertinent experimental observations.

Normally, three gyroscopes are required for operation; observations are still possible with two, but the area of sky that can be viewed would be somewhat restricted, and observations requiring very accurate pointing are more difficult.

Nothing ever linked any of these observations to any program or aircraft type, but the name Aurora was often tagged on these as a way of explaining the observations.

Observations cannot take place when the telescope passes through the South Atlantic Anomaly due to elevated radiation levels, and there are also sizable exclusion zones around the Sun (precluding observations of Mercury ), Moon and Earth.

Population variance and sample variance main seeAlso Real-world observations such as the measurements of yesterday's rain throughout the day typically cannot be complete sets of all possible observations that could be made.

Since it has the form of a gamma pdf, this can easily be filled in, and one obtains: : Here the hyperparameter α can be interpreted as the number of prior observations, and β as the sum of the prior observations.

The estimator is a function of the sample of n observations drawn without observational bias from the whole population of potential observations.

The mass observations for galaxies based on the light that they emit are far too low to explain the velocity observations.

The priors are normally defined as follows: : The update equations can be derived, and look as follows: : The respective numbers of pseudo-observations add the number of actual observations to them.

This has proved to be of limited usefulness in that the inconsistencies were resolved by better observations, and in most cases trying to change BBN resulted in abundances that were more inconsistent with observations rather than less.
