Unrooted binary tree enumeration problem on unrooted binary trees is to count the number of trees with "n" labeled leaves and unlabeled internal nodes. An unrooted binary tree on "n" labeled leaves can be formed by connecting the "n"th leaf to a new node in the middle of any of the edges of an unrooted binary tree on "n" − 1 labeled leaves. There are 2"n" − 5 edges at which the "n"th node can be attached; therefore, the number of trees on "n" leaves is larger than the number of trees on "n" − 1 leaves by a factor of 2"n" −
Binary asteroid Binary asteroid A binary asteroid is a system of two asteroids orbiting their common barycenter. The binary nature of 243 Ida was discovered when the Galileo spacecraft flew by the asteroid in 1993. Since then numerous binary asteroids and several triple asteroids have been detected. The mass ratio of the two components – called the "primary" and "secondary" of a binary system – is an important characteristic. Most binary asteroids have a large mass ratio, i.e. a relatively small satellite in orbit around the main component. Systems with a small minor-planet moon – also called "companion" or simply "satellite" –
