A search is presented for pair production of the standard model Higgs boson using data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2016, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . The final state consists of two b quark-antiquark pairs. The search is cond

The χb1ð3PÞ and χb2ð3PÞ states are observed through their ϒð3SÞγ decays, using an event sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The data were collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 80.0 fb−1. The ϒð3SÞ mesons are identified through their

The leaves of Neolamarckia cadamba (NC) (Roxb.) Bosser (family: Rubiaceae) aretraditionally used to treat breast cancer in Malaysia; however, this traditional claim is yet to be scientifically verified. Hence, this study was aimed to evaluate the anticancer effect of NC leaves’ ethanol extract against breast cancer cell line (MCF-7 cells) using a

Feedback to students’ writing plays an important role as a scaffolding technique to help the students to improve their writing skills. With the introduction of school-based assessment and the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) into the new Standards-based English Language Curriculum (SBELC), teachers are expected to adapt the process w

Abstract Living in the demanding and uncertain world nowadays, everybody must have a secured job to put food on the table food or even to maintain a lifestyle. There are a lot of instances whereby we concentrate so much on our work, job or career that we fail to balance between career and family or other commitments which equally important to achie

Whistleblowing is one of the countermeasures proposed to reduce the vulnerability of the halal food supply chain. Despite the importance of whistleblowing as a monitoring mechanism, limited studies were conducted concerning whistleblowing intentions in the halal food sector. This research is proposed to fill the gap. The primary objective of this s

Takaful is a contract whereby the participants commit to contribute an amount of money to a specified fund to mutually guarantee each other in the unprecedented event of misfortune and appoint a takaful operator to manage that fund. In takaful contract, the participants have the opportunity to mitigate or reduce any possible risks that they or thei

A search is presented for the production of a Higgs boson in association with a single top quark, based on data collected in 2016 by the CMS experiment at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. The production cross section for this process is highly sensitive to the absolute value

Within the ESL classrooms, teachers’ written corrective feedback has always been under scrutiny as the inconclusive debate is still going on since the publication of Truscott’s (1996) article that sparked the debate. Moreover, research findings point to Malaysian students’ lacking writing skills which could be attributed to the teachers’ fa

The information about affective states in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is difficult to obtain as they usually suffer from deficits in facial expression. Affective state conditions of individuals with ASD were associated with impaired regulation of speech, communication, and social skills leading towards poor socio-emotion interac
