Abstract: One of the most popular theories of measuring planetary distances in the solar system is Bode's law, but this law has some deviations when compared to the real distances. In this paper a new classification (Hazaymeh-Hawarey Classification) is presented. This classification aims to explain the inability of Bode's law to identify the two orbital dimensions of Neptune and Pluto, and it provides a new geometric image for the orbital distribution of the solar system, including Neptune and Pluto. This new classification shows that orbits of the solar system are divided into four equal groups, where the (10/3 = 4) is true. It also discovers that the two dimensions of Neptune and Pluto are much more systematic in the solar system, compared to Bode's law. The new classification includes the adjustment of the distances of Sedna and Eris, and enables the mathematical identification of a new asteroid located after Iris, even before the astronomical verification. The new classification reveals the symmetry and the anomaly of the solar system orbits and that the diameters of the first and fourth groups follow a geometric sequence. According to this, the diameter of the new asteroid can be determined.

Abstract: Frequency peak/linear size (ν_p-D) relation gives the strongest correlation among all the currently observable physical properties of Compact Steep Spectrum Sources (CSSs). This strong correlation suggests that the spectral turnover constitutes a characteristic signature of dense gases around the CSS sources which may be used to constrain physical mechanisms that govern the dynamical evolution of CSS sources. We have therefore, carried out statistical analyses to ascertain whether the observed ν_p-D correlation is real or an artifact arising from a possible spectral turnover/radio luminosity (ν_p-P) and/or linear size/radio luminosity (D-P) correlations. Our results show only a marginally significant ν_p-P correlation (correlation coefficient, r≈0.3) and apparently little or no D-P correlation. This suggests that the mechanism for the spectral turnover lies mainly in the source size according to the relation, ν_p~D^(-0.7), with correlation coefficient, r≈-0.9.
