Observation of the electroweak production of two same-sign W bosons in proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector by Mwewa, Chilufya

“…The production of same sign WW bosons (W±W±) is an extremely rare process predicted within the Standard Model (SM). It results from electroweak mediated processes such as Vector Boson Scattering (VBS), a process linked with electroweak symmetry breaking. …”

Artificial Intelligence Affordances for Organisational Change: Perspectives from South African Artificial Intelligence Practitioners by Achmat, Luqman

“…Eight key affordances are identified: (i) Analysing risk, (ii) analysing needs, (iii) forecasting, (iv) assessing efficiency and effectiveness, (v) providing prediction criteria, (vi) translating information, (vii) tailoring information, and (viii) improving predictability as an affordance that results from an outcome or organisational change influenced by one or more of the other affordances.…”
