What's this, Wilson?
How can you get pitch from a point source, Wilson?
All orbits are edge-on, Wilson, you said so.
In fact you don't need ANY extinction, it is ALL explained by pitch,
you stupid old wabo.
ALL right...you fluked the right explanation....BUT YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHY.....
AND STILL DON'T.
Stupid old wabo, I've been modelling variables since 1987, of course I know.
The thing is, our brightness curves are also the true velocity curves....or
they would be if only one star was contributing to the curves. Astronomers have
used doppler shifts of incoming light to calculate orbital velocities. This is
where they have been going wrong for years. It was only through arguing with
George about pulsars that I realised the mistake.
As you know, pulses bunch together as they travel due to c+v.
Astronomers have treated this bunching as Einsteinian doppler shift and arrived
at completely exaggerated velocity values....so when you see a published
velocity curve...don't believe it.
Here's a real fluke, look, a huff-puff star just happens to have a Keplerian
orbit, found from it's velocity curve:

What a strange coincidence, eh?
Perhaps the data was faked to make it look like a Keplerian orbit.
Funny how huff puff star all seem to have companions....
