In probability theory, a sub-Gaussian distribution is a probability distribution with strong tail decay. Informally, the tails of a sub-Gaussian distribution are dominated by (i.e. decay at least as fast as) the tails of a Gaussian. Formally, the probability distribution of a random variable X is called sub-Gaussian if there are positive constants C, v such that for every t > 0, The sub-Gaussian random variables with the following norm form a Birnbaum–Orlicz space: (Wikipedia).

(ML 7.10) Posterior distribution for univariate Gaussian (part 2)
Computing the posterior distribution for the mean of the univariate Gaussian, with a Gaussian prior (assuming known prior mean, and known variances). The posterior is Gaussian, showing that the Gaussian is a conjugate prior for the mean of a Gaussian.
