This aspect of Value Delusions represents a horizontal shift of value judgment concerning things and the world from a positive to a more negative orientation. What was once loved or thought of as good becomes devalued as "sour grapes" or "damaged goods" in the mind of the Ressentiment-imbued person, and what was previously lacking in value is now elevated |

Quasi-periodic oscillation | History | Quasi-periodic oscillation History QPOs were first identified in white dwarf systems and then in neutron star systems.
At first the neutron star systems found to have QPOs were of a class (Z sources and atoll sources) not known to have pulsations. The spin periods of these neutron stars were unknown as a result. These neutron stars are thought to have relatively low magnetic fields so the gas does not fall mostly onto their magnetic poles, as in accreting pulsars. Because their magnetic fields are so low, the accretion disk can get very close to the neutron star before being disrupted by |
