Anemometer is blowing on the back of the cup on the opposite end of the cross. Since a hollow hemisphere has a drag coefficient of .38 on the spherical side and 1.42 on the hollow side, more force is generated on the cup that is presenting its hollow side to the wind. Because of this asymmetrical force, torque is generated on the axis of the anemometer, causing it to spin. Theoretically, the speed of rotation of the anemometer should be proportional to the wind speed, because the force produced on an object is proportional to the speed of the fluid flowing
Cylinder set measure "γ" is the standard Gaussian measure on R. The canonical Gaussian cylinder set measure on an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space "H" does not correspond to a true measure on "H". The proof is quite simple: the ball of radius "r" (and center 0) has measure at most equal to that of the ball of radius "r" in an "n"-dimensional Hilbert space, and this tends to 0 as "n" tends to infinity. So the ball of radius "r" has measure 0; as the Hilbert space is a countable union of such balls it also has measure 0, which is a contradiction.
