Hour angle is paired with the declination to fully specify the location of a point on the celestial sphere in the equatorial coordinate system. The local hour angle (LHA) of an object in the observer's sky is where LHA is the local hour angle of the object, LST is the local sidereal time, formula_3 is the object's right ascension, GST is Greenwich sidereal time and formula_4 is the observer's longitude (positive east from the prime meridian). These angles can be measured in time (24 hours to a circle) or in degrees (360 degrees to a circle)— one or the other, not both.
Zero degrees of freedom concentrates all probability at zero. All of this leaves open the question of what happens with zero degrees of freedom when the noncentrality parameter is not zero. The noncentral chi-squared distribution with zero degrees of freedom and with noncentrality parameter "μ" is the distribution of This concentrates probability "e" at zero; thus it is a mixture of discrete and continuous distributions Zero degrees of freedom In statistics, the non-central chi-squared distribution with zero degrees of freedom can be used in testing the null hypothesis that a sample is from a uniform distribution on the interval (0, 1). This distribution was
