PSR B1620-26 PSR B1620-26 PSR B1620-26 is a binary star system located at a distance of 3,800 parsecs (12,400 light-years) in the globular cluster of Messier 4 (M4, NGC 6121) in the constellation of Scorpius. The system is composed of a pulsar (PSR B1620-26 A) and a white dwarf star (WD B1620-26 or PSR B1620-26 B). As of 2000, the system is also confirmed to have an extrasolar planet orbiting the two stars. The double system ("triple" including the substellar companion) is just outside the core of the globular cluster. The age of the cluster has been estimated to be about 12.2
3-j symbol and formula_21 integers. Similar relations exist for the spin-weighted spherical harmonics if formula_22: For formula_25 a non-zero 3-"j" symbol has where formula_27 and formula_28 is a Wigner function. Generally a better approximation obeying the Regge symmetry is given by where formula_30. The following quantity acts as a metric tensor in angular momentum theory and is also known as a "Wigner 1-jm symbol", It can be used to perform time-reversal on angular momenta. Wigner 3-j symbols are related to Racah -coefficients by a simple phase: 3-j symbol In quantum mechanics, the Wigner 3-j symbols, also called 3"-jm" symbols, are an alternative
