Negative mass using negative mass that requires no energy input and no reaction mass to achieve arbitrarily high acceleration. Forward also coined a term, "nullification", to describe what happens when ordinary matter and negative matter meet: they are expected to be able to cancel out or nullify each other's existence. An interaction between equal quantities of positive mass matter (hence of positive energy ) and negative mass matter (of negative energy ) would release no energy, but because the only configuration of such particles that has zero momentum (both particles moving with the same velocity in the same direction) does not produce
Binary mass function the true orbital velocity is low (implying low mass objects) and the inclination high (the orbit is seen edge-on), or that the true velocity is high (implying high mass objects) but the inclination low (the orbit is seen face-on). The peak radial velocity formula_1 is the semi-amplitude of the radial velocity curve, as shown in the figure. The orbital period formula_2 is found from the periodicity in the radial velocity curve. These are the two observable quantities needed to calculate the binary mass function. The observed object of which the radial velocity can be measured is taken to be object
