Universal rotation: how large can it be?

JD Barrow, R Juszkiewicz… - Monthly Notices of the …, 1985 - academic.oup.com
We present a detailed analysis of the expected temperature distribution of the cosmic
microwave background radiation in flat, open and closed universes possessing small …

Indication of anisotropy in electromagnetic propagation over cosmological distances

B Nodland, JP Ralston - Physical Review Letters, 1997 - APS
We report a systematic rotation of the plane of polarization of electromagnetic radiation
propagating over cosmological distances. The effect is extracted independently from …

A unified view of the theory of directional statistics, 1975-1988

PE Jupp, KV Mardia - … Statistical Review/Revue Internationale de Statistique, 1989 - JSTOR
Numerous articles on the theory and practice of directional statistics have appeared since
Mardia's (1975a) survey. This paper aims to present a coherent view of the theory of the …

Likelihood analysis of earthquake catalogues

YY Kagan - Geophysical journal international, 1991 - academic.oup.com
We apply several classes of stochastic multidimensional models to statistical analysis of
earthquake catalogues using likelihood methods. We investigate the importance of including …

The Virgo alignment puzzle in propagation of radiation on cosmological scales

JP Ralston, P Jain - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2004 - World Scientific
We reconsider analysis of data on the cosmic microwave background on the largest angular
scales. Temperature multipoles of any order factor naturally into a direct product of axial …

The role of differential geometry in statistical theory

OE Barndorff-Nielsen, DR Cox, N Reid - International Statistical Review …, 1986 - JSTOR
There has been increasing emphasis recently on the use of differential geometry in
statistical theory, especially in asymptotic theory. In this paper a brief relatively nontechnical …

Anisotropy in the propagation of radio polarizations from cosmologically distant galaxies

P Jain, JP Ralston - Modern Physics Letters A, 1999 - World Scientific
Radiation traversing the observable universe provides powerful ways to probe anisotropy of
electromagnetic propagation. A controversial recent study claimed a signal of dipole …

Electromagnetic polarization effects due to axion-photon mixing

P Jain, S Panda, S Sarala - Physical Review D, 2002 - APS
We investigate the effect of axions on the polarization of electromagnetic waves as they
propagate through astronomical distances. We analyze the change in the dispersion of the …

A conjecture on the neutrality of matter

L Campanelli - Foundations of Physics, 2021 - Springer
Elaborating on an old conjecture by Blackett, we formulate a new conjecture about the
neutrality of matter according to which any physical system possesses an active electric …

Global and local effects of rotation: Observational aspects

W Godłowski - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2011 - World Scientific
In this paper we discussed the observational aspects of rotation in the Universe on different
scales. We show dependence between the angular momentum of the structures and their …
