How does oral and genital herpes simplex become localized to their respective sites? Why isn't the infection more systemic like herpes zoster? What makes the mouth or genitals better sites for eruption than any other body part?

What is "herd immunity"? Is this term being thrown around correctly? Is this a viable solution to Covid19?

How to interpret the of power laws in the spectrum of a time series (understanding white, pink, red brown and black noise)?

Posted: 21 May 2020 07:06 AM PDT

From my understanding if a frequency spectrum is essentially frequency independent then this is white noise. The interpretation being that there is no correlation in time in the data.

 

For brown noise, such that the frequency spectrum has a 1/f2 power law, this is interpreted as there is no correlation between increments. That is the signal is performing a random walk in time.

 

How does one interpret the "various shades" of pink noise where 1/falpha with 0<alpha<2? I get the idea of for alpha = 1 then we have the same energy in each octave. But this does not really give a physical understanding in the same way as for white and brown noise.

Can a quasar be formed when the Milky way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy collide?

If we looked really far away with a really good telescope, could we see the Big Bang while it was happening?

If not, how far back could we see?

Why are new spacecraft today built as a pod on top of a rocket instead of evolving the shuttle design ideas?

Posted: 21 May 2020 04:36 AM PDT

Something that has been bothering me and I can't really find an answer. I know the shuttle program was primarily scrapped due to cost but why are the new space craft being built by spacex and others following the design ideas of the apollo missions?

Personally, the space shuttle looks better, has more capability due to its cargo space and arm so can be used for more things than just ferrying people between places.

Is it simply cost or is there another reason?

If the speed of light equals the speed of causality, does causality slow down in water like light does ?

Is it possible to touch something so cold, it causes acute pain like when touching something too hot?

Posted: 21 May 2020 07:00 AM PDT

When you touch the hot burner of the stove, you can burn yourself in under a second. Is it possible to touch something so cold that similar harm is inflicted in a similar amount of time?

Are there vaccine technologies being advanced for Covid-19 that can be later repurposed for other viruses?

Posted: 20 May 2020 11:57 AM PDT

With the enormous amount of money and effort being dedicated to developing a Covid-19 vaccine, are we advancing any cutting edge vaccine technology that can later be repurposed? For example for eradicating the other common coronaviruses causing common cold?

After a partial liver transplant, does the reconstituted new liver have the donor's source genetic make-up, or the recipient's?

Posted: 20 May 2020 09:28 AM PDT

Or is it a sort-of mix, like a child is a mix of parental DNA?

And if it does take on the recipient's, does the actual donated chunk retain it's old DNA, or is it overwritten during regeneration?

Why do mRNA vaccines have to create the Covid19 protein-spike in humans? Why can't we generate the protein in pigs or ecoli?

Posted: 20 May 2020 08:37 AM PDT

I'm both excited and frightened by the mRNA vaccines being created by companies like Moderna.

The idea of them creating raw mRNA and my body creating the protein just seems ... dangerous to me.

I'm FAR from a luddite. My background is data science and I love modern medicine.

I just don't think it's a conservative strategy.

Wouldn't it be better to generate the protein by something like ecoli, then just inject the raw protein spike into humans?

I assume there must be some core reason. My thinking is that they're taking the raw RNA slice from COVID19 directly and that it would only replicate in humans?
