Planets near a star are easier to detect because their gravitational pull affects the parent star noticeably, inducing something of a wiggling motion. Spot the mistake. The author of this article knows nothing about barycentres. It always concerns me when you see a mistake such as this as it implies the author simply doesn't understand the material rather than has simply made a careless error. -- Andrew Smallshaw |
