"Quantum physics stubs" typically refers to short, incomplete articles or entries related to quantum physics that are part of a larger database or collection, often seen in online encyclopedias, such as Wikipedia. These stubs provide basic information but are recognized as needing more detailed content, references, or expansion. The stub can cover various topics within quantum physics, such as key concepts, fundamental theories, notable experiments, or important physicists in the field.
"Relativity stubs" typically refer to a concept in programming or software development, specifically within the context of the "Relativity" application or framework, often associated with legal and e-discovery processes. However, in more common contexts, the term might not have a widely recognized or established definition. In general, a "stub" is a piece of code used to stand in for some other programming functionality.
In the context of Wikipedia, a "stub" is a term used to describe a short or incomplete article that provides only basic information on a particular topic. Theoretical physics stubs would refer to Wikipedia articles related to theoretical physics that are still in a preliminary state and need further expansion and detail. These stubs might cover specific theories, concepts, or areas of research within theoretical physics but lack comprehensive coverage or depth.
An **air lock** is a controlled environment that prevents air or contaminants from entering or exiting a specific area. It is commonly used in various settings, including: 1. **Spacecraft:** Air locks are utilized in space vehicles to facilitate the transfer of astronauts and equipment between the pressurized environment of the spacecraft and the vacuum of space. An astronaut would enter the airlock, depressurize the chamber, and then open the outer door to exit into space.
Bayshore Resilience refers to initiatives and projects aimed at enhancing the resilience of coastal areas, particularly in regions vulnerable to climate change, sea-level rise, and extreme weather events. This term may often be used in the context of specific geographic areas, community planning, or environmental management efforts focused on protecting shorelines, ecosystems, and human infrastructure.
The Beard and Chuang model refers to a theoretical framework used in economics, particularly in the field of labor economics and labor market equilibrium. The model was developed by economists Beard and Chuang to analyze the dynamics of employment and wage determination, often with a focus on the effects of various policies on labor markets.
Bhāskara's wheel, also known as Bhāskara's lost wheel or Bhāskara's lamp, is an ancient Indian astronomical device attributed to the 12th-century mathematician and astronomer Bhāskara II (also known as Bhāskarācārya). It is a mechanical model used to demonstrate and visualize various celestial phenomena, particularly the motions of celestial bodies and the concept of time.

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.

- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
