Time Group,
This, my first post, was inspired by the discussion of "dissipation". I
enjoyed reading a great many posts after being away from my computer for a
time.
My question is: Since Einstein tells us that all of the orbits around our
Sun loose about 28 kilometers (6*pi*G*M/c^2) of orbit per orbit due to GR,
then could this loss of length be interpreted as "dissipation" of orbital
angular momentum.
Sincerely,
Bill Eshleman
