A Physical Law or A Statistical One?

A Scientific Discovery
· Similar patterns on various galactic sources. · Confirmed in different exp eriments by indep endent groups.

A Statistical Fallacy
· There are noises in the measurements. · Estimates of parameters with noisy data are usually correlated. · Simulation study has suggested that this might b e the reason.
