We extend some two Higgs doublet models, where the Yukawa couplings for the charged fermion mass generation only involve one Higgs doublet, by two singlet scalars respectively carrying a singly electric charge and a doubly electric charge. The doublet and singlet scalars together can mediate a two-loop diagram to generate a tiny Majorana mass matrix of the standard model neutrinos. Remarkably, ...

We review the effects of clumping on the profiles of resonance doublets. By allowing the ratio of the doublet oscillator strenghts to be a free parameter, we demonstrate that doublet profiles contain more information than is normally utilized. In clumped (or porous) winds, this ratio can lies between unity and the ratio of the f -values, and can change as a function of velocity and time, depend...

57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopic results on the 2D Hofmann-like coordination polymer Fe(4-Clpy)2Ni(CN)4 (sample 1) indicate that iron(II) ions are in a high spin state both at R.T. and T = 80 K, showing that the compound exhibits no spin crossover (SCO) behavior. Mössbauer spectra at R.T. and T = 80 K show one major doublet which corresponds to the HS1 is due to high spin iron(II) sites coordinated...

Although the widely shared "9 + 2" structure of axonemes is thought to be highly symmetrical, axonemes show asymmetrical bending during planar and conical motion. In this study, using electron cryotomography and single particle averaging, we demonstrate an asymmetrical molecular arrangement of proteins binding to the nine microtubule doublets in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii flagella. The eight inn...

Trypsin digestion of demembranated fowl spermatozoa caused a longitudinal splitting of the distal part of the axoneme. The resulting strands, consisting of groups of doublet microtubules, formed left-handed helices. On the evidence of electron micrographs, the digestion had caused the loss of dynein arms from the outer row; it is assumed that the doublets remained linked together by dynein arms...

The ILC baseline consists of two interaction regions, one with a 20mrad crossing angle and the other with a 2mrad crossing angle. It is known that the outgoing beam losses in the final doublet and subsequent extraction line are larger in the 2mrad than in the 20mrad layout. In this work, we exploit NbTi and Nb3Sn superconducting magnet technologies to redesign and optimise the final doublet, wi...

The decay KL → πνν is an excellent probe of the nature of CP violation. It is almost entirely CP-violating, and hadronic uncertainties are negligible. Experiments which hope to detect the decay are currently being planned. We calculate the decay rate in several extensions of the standard model Higgs sector, including the Liu-Wolfenstein two-doublet model of spontaneous CP-violation and the Wein...

Here we report on the conformational changes that are responsible for the appearance of the Dicentrarchus labrax encephalitis virus (DlEV) coat protein as a doublet in SDS-PAGE. Wild-type and mutated forms of the coat protein cDNA were expressed in E. coli. The study of the resulting recombinant molecules excluded the possibility of the involvement of a precursor autocatalysis mechanism or a ri...

We use QCD sum rules to estimate the universal form factors describing the semileptonic B decays into excited charmed resonances, such as the 1 and 2 states D 1 and D ∗ 2 belonging to the s P l = 3 2 − heavy quark doublet, and the 2 and 3 states D 2 and D3 belonging to the s P l = 5 2 − doublet. “Fondazione Angelo Della Riccia” Fellow. Address after December 1st, 1999: Centre for Particle Physi...

This paper describes a novel compact representation of local features called the tensor doublet. The representation generates a four dimensional feature vector which is significantly less complex than other approaches, such as Lowe’s 128 dimensional feature vector. Despite its low dimensionality, we demonstrate here that the tensor doublet can be used for pose estimation, where the system is tr...
