What is "quadrupolar correlation"?
editI just tagged the article for clarification. Is it sort of like triangulation in a higher dimension? That is, not to determine something's location of course, just to determine that there's oscillation along a certain axis (namely, x, y, or z, plus a control for time) — W.andrea (talk) 05:16, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
- quadrupolar correlation is a correlation in the quadrupole moment tensors of two signals.
- The term is not uncommon in the physics literature in general and in pulsar timing publications in particular, e.g. Xu, Heng (2023-06-29). "Searching for the Nano-Hertz Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background with the Chinese Pulsar Timing Array Data Release I". Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics. 23 (7). IOP Publishing: 075024. doi:10.1088/1674-4527/acdfa5. ISSN 1674-4527. Hence I'm going to remove the clarification tag and put in a wikilink to the quadrupole article.
