Posted: 12 Feb 2021 04:00 AM PST We are scientists working in the Crowther Lab at ETH Zurich:
We'll be answering your questions at 14:00-20:00 CET/8:00-14:00 EST (13-19 UT), ask us anything! [link] [comments] |
Will the first influenza season after all corona restrictions are lifted be worse than before? Posted: 11 Feb 2021 02:45 PM PST It is my understanding that our immune system needs, to some extend, "training" or rather some exposure to germs in everyday life to keep us healthy. To my knowledge, this is also why overuse of desinfectants (e.g. every time you touch something in public spaces) is actually a bad thing. So, I was wondering whether the next influenza season or some other disease could become worse (meaning more people suffer from it or show more severe symptoms) than before because our immune systems won't be up for the task when the corona restrictions are lifted.

Posted: 11 Feb 2021 03:30 PM PST What I mean by snowball is say once the Milky Way and Andromeda collide, since they've grown in mass, they start attracting another galaxy onto a collision course. And then after this that repeats, until it forms one large "super-galaxy" of sorts. This of course most likely wouldn't happen with our 2 galaxies, but out there in the huge universe, there are most likely 2 galaxies that will collide with each other and have good enough conditions to repeat that collision at least a few times, and grow to be a massive galaxy. But, just as a hypothetical, throwing out the expansion of the universe, and the amount of time it would take for all the galaxies to collide and merge, is this possible? [link] [comments] |
Is there a relationship between the concept of high entropy and guage symmetry? Posted: 11 Feb 2021 02:22 PM PST I'm finishing up "Qbism" by Hans Christian von Baeyer and "The Fabric of the Cosmos" by Brian Greene. I was struck by the similarity of the explanations about the microstates involved in quantifying entropy and the concept of gauge invariance. I can't find much online about the relationship, if there is one. I have a feeling that I may be misunderstanding guage symmetry/invariance so I'll give my best understanding of both. Please correct me on anything that's off! One concept of entropy would be the number of "microstates" (molecular/atomic structures) that could create a given "macrostate" (observable system). A glass of water has high entropy because the H2O molecules could be organized any-which way and you'd still have the same glass of water. My understanding of guage symmetry (same as invariance?) its that a field or variable is said to have this property if fiddling with it doesn't change the measurable result. This makes it seem to me like "high entropy" is a synonym for "guage symmetry", or that there may be some tight connection between the two ideas. Can someone sort me out please? [link] [comments] |
Why cant elements with atomic numbers above 94 be found in nature? Posted: 11 Feb 2021 09:14 AM PST I thought it had to do with the half life of those elements but Curium 248 has a relatively long half life. Longer than Neptunium isotopes which can be found in trace amounts so why? [link] [comments] |
Due to gravitational time dilation, do I weigh more when standing up vs laying down? Posted: 11 Feb 2021 02:48 PM PST |
Posted: 11 Feb 2021 07:03 PM PST So, I have been thinking to myself that there's a lot of emotions that people have and some experiments have even used that, like the plant experiment where they make people say either nice things or mean things to each specific plant, so that makes me think, is there a way for a computer to be able to tell?

Would organisms that live closer to extreme heat have weaker immune systems? Posted: 11 Feb 2021 10:28 AM PST Crustaceans like Lava snails, or the animals that live around heat vents near the bottom of the ocean are what I'm curious about. [link] [comments] |
