CRUCIAL TESTS OF THE EXISTENCE OF A SOLAR QUADRUPOLE MOMENT,

Abstract

Recently, Audretsch, Dehnen, and Honl (1967) have proposed what they state to be a crucial test of the solar oblateness hypothesized theoretically by Dicke (1964) and inferred observationally by Dicke and Goldenberg (1967). The purpose of this Letter is to show that the observation in question does not represent a crucial test, in fact, since it actually yields a result falling within the limits permitted by the corresponding residual.
