One of the men who proposed this theory in a 1948 paper developed coordinates for null hypersurfaces named for himself and Sachs. Another of its proposers predicted a resonance in carbon-12 which allows the triple-alpha mechanism to work. An unrelated approximation of the same name applied to the concentration of the enzyme-substrate complex gives the Michaelis-Menten equation. That approximation sets time derivatives of intermediate concentrations to zero. The theory of this name allowed spontaneous matter creation to uphold the perfect cosmological principle. FTP name this rival of Big Bang theory which held that the global properties of the Universe are unchanging.
