The mutual interaction terms of the SM Higgs, left-handed leptons, the extra scalar, and fermions are given by
On the other hand, scalars of mass ~1 TeV decaying into diphotons, which is a typical signature of many models, are still allowed by the LHC data.
"We do not know what dark matter is, but if it has anything to do with any scalar particles, it may be older than the Big Bang.

Our findings suggest rumen-reticulum fill scalars vary on an intraspecific basis.
where a, b, c, d are scalars of which b [not equal to] 0, c = 0, d [not equal to] 0 and A, B are two non-zero 1-forms such that A(X) = g(X,U) and B(X) = g(X, V); U, V being mutually orthogonal unit vector fields and D is a symmetric (0, 2) type tensor field with zero trace which satisfies the condition D(X, U) = 0, [for all]X.
The Clebsch parametrization consists of the following very general representation of arbitrary vector fields with three scalars in the form
Thus, it has been rigorously shown for the first time in this manner (to the author's knowledge) that the scalars [C.sub.n] appearing in the potential formulation do not contribute to the fields and consequently ensures a unique field representation.
Abstract: We address the problem of loop invariant generation of programs over scalars and unbounded data structures.
where A is a nowhere vanishing 1-form and [a.sub.1], [a.sub.2] are scalars of which [a.sub.2] [not equal to] 0.
As the editors note, the three topics are conceptually connected: implicatures (scalars at least) are sensitive to negative polarity items and presupposition, unlike entailment, is typically invariant under negation.
