Radius of convergence — In mathematics, the radius of convergence of a power series is a quantity, either a non negative real number or ∞, that represents a domain (within the radius) in which the series will converge. Within the radius of convergence, a power series… … Wikipedia
Radius rod — A radius rod (also called a radius arm or a torque arm) is a suspension member intended to control wheel motion in the longitudinal (fore aft) plane. The link is connected (with a rubber or solid bushing) on one end to the wheel carrier or axle,… … Wikipedia

Poynting-Robertson effect — The Poynting Robertson effect, also known as Poynting Robertson drag, named after John Henry Poynting and Howard Percy Robertson, is a process by which solar radiation causes a dust grain in the solar system to slowly spiral inward. The drag is… … Wikipedia
Yarkovsky-O'Keefe-Radzievskii-Paddack effect — The Yarkovsky O Keefe Radzievskii Paddack effect, or YORP effect for short, is a second order variation on the Yarkovsky effect which changes the rotation rate of a small body (such as an asteroid). The term was coined by Dr. David P. Rubincam in … Wikipedia
