Using a chiral Lagrangian we show that strongly interacting models of electroweak symmetry breaking are not in conflict with precision data. Such models, like Technicolor, need not lead to a heavy Higgs-like signal. Furthermore, the allowed…

Recently it has been suggested that junctions between materials with different parity violating properties would be characterized by diffusion layers, analogous to those in the p-n junction. This remark is amplified by a fuller…
