The wobble of a spinning body.
- 1960, William Duncan MacMillan, Dynamics of rigid bodies, page 210:
  Since the polhodes are the intersection of the surface of the ellipsoid with a cone, Eq. (3), whose apex is at the center of the ellipsoid, and since the cone has two nappes, there are two curves on the ellipsoid for each value of d.
