Rotational Brownian motion (astronomy) that the rotation axis of the binary is oriented at angle θ at time "t". The evolution equation for "F" is formula_17 If <Δξ>, "a", ρ and σ are constant in time, this becomes formula_18 where μ = cos θ and τ is the time in units of the relaxation time "t", where formula_19 The solution to this equation states that the expectation value of μ decays with time as formula_20 Hence, "t" is the time constant for the binary's orientation to be randomized by torques from field stars. Rotational Brownian motion was first discussed in the context of binary
Schramm–Loewner evolution evolution is a probability measure on planar curves, given as the image of Wiener measure under this map. In general the curve γ need not be simple, and the domain "D" is not the complement of γ([0,"t"]) in "D", but is instead the unbounded component of the complement. There are two versions of SLE, using two families of curves, each depending on a non-negative real parameter κ: SLE depends on a choice of Brownian motion on the boundary of the domain, and there are several variations depending on what sort of Brownian motion is used: for example it might start
