The generation of humor is an under-explored and challenging problem. Previous works mainly utilize templates or replace phrases to generate humor. However, few works focus on freer forms and the background knowledge of humor. The linguistic theory o...
Motivated by a desire to understand quantum fluctuation energy densities and stress within a spatially varying dielectric medium, we examine the vacuum expectation value for the stress tensor of a scalar field with arbitrary conformal parameter, in t...
It is often said that detecting a spectrum of primordial gravitational waves via observing B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background is the "Holy Grail" of inflation. The purpose of this short note is to point out that it is indeed of im...
We establish universality at the hard edge for general beta ensembles provided that the background potential V is a polynomial such that x -> V(x^2) is uniformly convex and beta is larger than or equal to one. The method rests on the corresponding tr...
# Background The subreddit /r/MyHeroAcadamia is for discussions about the [Japanese manga series, My Hero Academia,](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Hero_Academia) which was serialized in Weekly S...
Measurements of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy have served as the best experimental probe of the early universe to date. The inflationary paradigm, inspired in part by the extreme isotropy of the CMB, is now a cornerstone in modern co...
The **College of Faith** (CoF) & **University of Faith** (UoF) have got a lot of attention on /r/CFB thanks to the original post I made about them ([available here](http://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/com...
Hi Reddit! For some background, I am the youngest of four girls. My two older sisters (32, 30) both have kids. My third sister (27) doesn't and is getting married at the end of the month. I (23) also...
We construct a double copy relation between the Cotton spinor and the dual field strength spinor of topologically massive theories, as the three-dimensional analogue of the Weyl double copy. The relationship holds in curved backgrounds for wave solut...
We report on the detection of dark matter in the cluster Abell 2390 using the weak gravitational distortion of background galaxies. We find that the cluster light and total mass distributions are quite similar over an angular scale of $\simeq 7^\pr...

For some background, I (16F)have lived with my dad (64M) for about a year now. My parents are divorced and I am not close with my mother. I’m going into my senior year (I’m graduating a year early...
Background: Limited universally-adopted data standards in veterinary medicine hinder data interoperability and therefore integration and comparison; this ultimately impedes the application of existing information-based tools to support advancement in...
Supplementing the publications based on the first-light observations with the German Receiver for Astronomy at Terahertz frequencies (GREAT) on SOFIA, we present background information on the underlying heterodyne detector technology. We describe the...
Chapter 1 Fifteen Days Before The Apocalypse The news anchor's voice rang out in the background, "Flu cases are spiking lately. Please take care of your personal protection, avoid public places, don'...
Brief background - Every week, I record videos of 5-7 minutes each for my asynchronous online courses in order to detail the week's agenda and teach my lessons. In order to provide an incentive to wat...
Background - My lady love (LL) and I live in a house built in the early 1900’s with mostly original everything, including the sliding no screen having windows. We typically only crack the windows o...
Background and context: Debugging is a common and often frustrating challenge for beginner programmers. Understanding students' debugging processes can help us identify the difficulties and misunderstandings they possess. However, we currently have l...
Background Small for gestational age (SGA) birthweight, a risk factor of infant mortality and delayed child development, is associated with maternal educational attainment. Maternal tobacco smoking during pregnancy could contribute to this associatio...
We discuss general features of the $β$-function equations for spatially flat, $(d+1)$-dimensional cosmological backgrounds at lowest order in the string-loop expansion, but to all orders in $α'$. In the special case of constant curvature and a line...
