Space Station Freedom coupling tasks: An evaluation of their space operational compatibility
The development of the Space Station Freedom tasks that are compatible with both telerobotic as well as extravehicular activity is a necessary redundancy in order to insure successful day to day operation. One task to be routinely performed aboard Freedom will be the changeout of various quick disconnect fluid connectors. In an attempt to resolve these potentially contradictory issues of compatibility, mock-ups of couplings suitable to both extravehicular as well as telerobotic activity were designed and built. An evaluation performed at the Remote Operator Interaction Laboratory at NASA's Johnson Space Center is discussed, which assessed the prototype couplings as well as three standard coupling designs. Data collected during manual and telerobotic manipulation of the couplings indicated that the custom coupling was in fact shown to be faster to operate and generally preferred over the standard coupling designs

The CP-conserving 2HDM after the 8 TeV run
We confront the most common CP-conserving 2HDM with the LHC data analysed so
far while taking into account all previously available experimental data. A
special allowed corner of the parameter space is analysed - the so-called
wrong-sign scenario where the Higgs coupling to down-type quarks changes sign
relative to the Standard Model while the coupling to the massive vector bosons
does not.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, to appear in the proceedings of the 22nd

The Wrong Sign limit in the 2HDM
A sign change in the Higgs couplings to fermions and massive gauge bosons is
still allowed in the framework of two-Higgs doublet models (2HDM). In this work
we discuss the possible sign changes in the Higgs couplings to fermions and
gauge bosons, while reviewing the status of the 8-parameter CP-conserving 2HDM
after the Large Hadron Collider 8 TeV run.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures. Proceedings of the Second Annual Conference on
