IV. A Measurement of the Tolman Signal and the Luminosity Evolution of Early-Type Galaxies — mentioned by contact_fusionhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15032637urn:hackerpapers:mention:astro-ph_0106566:15032637Thu, 17 Aug 2017 00:29:02 GMT<p>The article referenced in that piece is available here, from the arxiv: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1603.07224.pdf The article has been up for some time, but has just now been published by Physical Review A; it is common practice for physicists to post a preprint on arxiv prior to publication, which happens after peer-review. The momentum paradox you refer to is (possibly?) the Abraham-Minkowski controversy ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham-Minkowski_controversy ) about electromagnetic momentum in dielectric media. I&#x27;m not an expert on this subject, but I would doubt that this new work…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/astro-ph_0106566/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
