Definition of barycenter in English English dictionary

The centroid, the geometric center of a plane figure

The center of a mass; often specifically, the point at which the gravitational forces exerted by two objects are equal

the Earth-Moon barycenter.

{i} (Astronomy) center of mass around which two or more bodies rotate; center of mass

The center of mass of two mutually revolving bodies

(astronomy) the common center of mass around which two or more bodies revolve

The center of mass of a system of masses, as the barycenter of the earth-moon system

barus = [Greek] heavy The barycenter is the same as the center of mass C

The common center of mass about which two or more bodies revolve

barus = [Greek] heavy The barycenter is the same as the center of mass It is spelled barycentre in British English

The center of mass of a system of bodies, such as the solar system When a comet, for example, is well outside the orbit of Neptune (the farthest major planet), it sees the sun and major planets essentially as a single object of summed mass, and the center of this mass (called the barycenter of the solar system) is offset somewhat from the sun; "original" and "future" orbits of long-period comets are computed for this barycenter, while perturbed, osculating orbits of currently-observed objects in the inner solar system are computed for heliocentric orbits

The common centre of mass about which two or more bodies revolve

From physics, this is the center of mass: the point at which a mass (body) can be considered as being concentrated without altering the effect of the attraction that the earth has upon it This is the average position ({x^i}) of particles, weighted by their masses ({m_i}): Sum_i{m_i x^i}/Sum_i{m_i} In mathematical programming, this is usually used to mean the simple average of the extreme points of a polytope: Sum_i{x^i}/m, where {x^i} = {x^1, , x^m} is the set of extreme points More generally, this could be a weighted average
