“It is also obvious, and proved by experiment⟳, that the rotatory motions observed in the hand proceed from the rotatory motions of the radius.”

“Fatima claims to have⟳ visited all the bars within a five-mile radius of her Manhattan apartment.”

“We start⟳ with spherical geometries. The two geometries on spheres of radiuses R₁ and R₂ are obviously identical if R₁ = R₂; moreover, the converse also holds.”

“The velocity dispersions of early- and late-type galaxies in compact groups change⟳ little with groupcentric radius; the radii sampled are less than 100~h#123;-1#125; kpc, smaller than the radii typically sampled by members of massive clusters of galaxies.”

“This contribution reduces with increasing distance p from the emitting surface element dA, due to conservation of energy, as the wave⟳ energy distributed across the spherical wave⟳ front remains constant, while the radius increases during ...”
