Demonstrates the relationship between angular momentum and precession in rotating systems, suggesting its relevance to various physical phenomena.
Starting from the balance between the inertial torque generated by a spinning top itself and an externally applied torque, this paper systematically explains the driving force of precession in a slowly precessing spinning top, as well as the stability characteristics of that precession. On this basis, we propose that the angular momentum of rotating bodies, including planets and rotating fluids, couples with the angular velocity of the associated entrained reference frame, and we identify the multiple manifestations of this coupling.
