... Binary orbits in the acceleration/period plane . Circular Orbits . ... We first present the equations for the period and acceleration of a pulsar in an eccentric binary system as a function of its position in the orbit. ... In Freire, Kramer & Lyne (2001) (from where most of this text and following equations are taken), we describe in more detail how circular binary orbits can be determined from the observed periods and accelerations of the pulsar. ... where is the orbital period of the binary. ...

The rotation of the stellar component of galaxy is obtained from the compilation of internal stellar kinematics . The rotation of the gaseous component is given in the parameter vmaxg , and the stellar velocity dispersion in vdis . For disk-like galaxies (eg. mostly disks of spiral), the apparent rotation may be converted into the true (physical) rotation using the inclination given in the parameter incl . HyperLeda .
