I am trying to simulate an interplanetary mission using NASA's General Mission Analysis Tool. While trying to optimise the delta-v budget, I began to think; how might one optimise and code for WSB/ITN routes in this software? How are they calculated in general? Example for illustration: Voyager 2...

Subject: Seeking Help with a Mathematics Exercise Hello everyone, I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to seek assistance with a mathematics exercise that has been posing some challenges for me. The exercise is as follows: Let $n$ be an integer, $n \geq 1$. We denote $f_n$ as the ...

By default, KOMA-Script composes headers using sans-serif. I would like to type them in a serif font, so I used: \addtokomafont{chapter}{\normalfont} This works, but I would like the label "Contents" in the TOC to also be written in a sans-serif font. How can I do this? \documentclass[mpinclude=t...

To learn how custom derive macros work in Rust, I decided to create a simple derive macro to provide getters and setters for a given struct. It would be used like this: #[derive(GetSet)] pub struct Example { #[get] #[set] field1: String, #[get] field2: i32, } However, there a...

Let $F_t(T_1, T_2)$ be the forward swap rate at time $t$ from $T_1$ to $T_2$. Consider a swap that fixes at time $T$, with effective date at time $T + 2D$, and payment date 6 months later at $T + 2D + 6M$. That is, the swap fixes two days prior to being effective. My question is, which of the fol...

The stock of this company, Karuna Therapeutics, rose on 12/22/2023 from around 220$ to 320$ because it is being acquired by a bigger biotech company. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/KRTX/ From the volume data on that date, obviously a lot of people sold their stocks for a very nice 45% unexpected...

All the passports I've owned so far had a "signature" field in them. However in my 15+ years of traveling I've never once seen anyone compare the passport signature to my current signature. Is this field ever actually used for any purposes as of 2023 or is it just a relic of the 20th century that...

My great-aunt and her two children were expelled from their family farm in the Province of Pomerania, at Rummelsburg (now known as Miastko), near Williamshaffen. They were given no compensation.

Did Paul persecute the Church for years, or was the timeframe shorter, as in months? What do most scholars believe regarding this? Acts 8:3 (BLB) - But Saul was destroying the church. Entering houses after houses and dragging off men and women, he was delivering them to prison. Acts 9:1, 2 (BSB)...

This is probably a well-known question, but I haven't found the answer on MO or MSE. It is well-known that the homotopy groups of a finite CW complex $X$ need not be finitely presented, even as $\mathbf Z[\pi_1(X)]$-module (see for instance Exercise 38 in §4.2 of Hatcher). The first counterexampl...

I've see in some examples, e.g. here, that $$-4\vec{E}\cdot \vec{B}=\tilde{F}_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}$$ How would you show such a relation? By inserting terms by terms inside this equation I've seen it is correct, but I would like to prove it in a more general way. I was only able to show this: $\tild...

The question is: A. Calculate the Fourier transform of the function $$ f(x) = a^2-x^2, |x| < a$$ $$ f(x) = 0, |x| > a$$ where $a \ge 0$ B. Hence, deduce $$\int_0^{\infty} \frac{\sin x - x\cos x}{x^3}\,\Bbb dx = \frac{\pi}{4}$$ HINT: Start from inverse Fourier transform and note that $f(0) = a^2$....

The iconic personal computer sponsored by the British Broadcasting Corporation, was most famous for its use in UK schools, so I was surprised to read in The Legacy of the BBC Micro: By October 1983, demand from schools had increased, with 25 per cent of the total sales coming from education, 35 ...

In this Ohr HaChaim he says that Noach received the pre sinatic torah from Chanoch (Enoch) who had received it from Adam. From my understanding Noach was born after Chanochs death. This would seem to make it difficult for Chanoch to have transmitted anything to Noach since Noach was not alive dur...

In a problem I have found that $$Cov(X,Y)=Var(Y),$$ where $X$ and $Y$ are random variables. What can I conclude on the linear dependence between $X$ and $Y$? Thank you!

When dealing with data $(X,Y)$ that is not time series data, for example $X=\text{weight}$ and $Y=\text{height}$, we can use OLS to estimate the coefficients $b_1$ and $b_0$ of a linear regression model $Y=b_1 X+b_0$ only if certain assumptions are met. One of the assumption is that the residuals...

In the context of Ising models, some Hamiltonians can be described as geometrically frustrated - such as, I think, the antiferromagnetic kagome lattice, as well as a one-dimensional anisotropic, next-nearest neighbor Ising chain. There appears to be a competition between spin-up and spin-down qu...

I am reading some notes on parameterized complexity located here. Under the topic of "Kernalization" (section 3, page 4) they state: When faced with the task of solving an NP-Hard problem, almost every practical computer implementation performs preprocessing steps or data reduction steps.

I am writing my CV with LaTeX, using moderncv. Dates that are longer (eg. 03/2021-08/2023) are causing a linebreak.

I bought a entry level road bike CAAD optimo for around $1000 and I've noticed that the bike required a fair bit of maintenance for example creaking noises, chain rubbing, chain skipping etc. I am wondering if higher end bikes like giant tcr has less of these problems? Or is it more of the same...

I consider a Hilbert system defined by the following: $A \rightarrow (B \rightarrow A)$ $(A \rightarrow (B \rightarrow C)) \rightarrow ((A \rightarrow B) \rightarrow (A \rightarrow C))$ I believe this is called something like minimal logic (?)

I'm trying to recreate and modify this model. My plan would be to model one of the "stars", which is in essence a star with four points, with the connecting edges "shrunk" towards the center. Then use the array modifier to create multiple copies of the star around a circle or ellipse, and finally...

I was going over the circle of fifths as part of theory, and I was trying to write out the G-flat key signature. I put the G-flat in where the red flat is in the image below, but I realized that the signature actually uses the G closer to middle C. Is there a reason why this is the case?

I come from this post Guitar Pre-Amp stage/filtering and STM32F4. I found this circuit below in the answer by Dave Branton. Why does it include 2 clamps, one at the input and one at the output? Moreover, I have simulated the circuit in PSPICE and even it suits perfectly fine with my purpose. I ...

I am simply wondering if my proof of this statement works. Suppose $x_n$ converges to x and $y_n$ diverges. Proof by contradiction. Since $x_n$ converges, for any $ε$, there exists a natural number $N_x$ s.t. $n≥N_x$ implies $|x_n - x| < ε$. Now assume $x_n + y_n$ converges to $x + y$. Thus for a...

This is a short story I probably read in Asimov's Science Fiction in the late 1980s or early 1990s.

Perhaps this is an easy and standard result in the binomial distribution. Consider the expansion $(a+b)^n$ where $a=(\frac{1}{2} +\delta)$ and $b=(\frac{1}{2}-\delta)$ for some arbitrarily small $\delta$. Given a fixed small $0<c<1$, one would expect for all $n$ large enough, the existence of $t=...
