Ambiguous Symbols

[edit]

Symbol T is used with two different meanings: a) topness, b) weak isospin. Same problem for symbol B (Baryon Number/Bottomness was solved by denoting the latter as B' (also seen B*). ==> Shouldn't topness be renamed the same way denoting it as T' ? --ErnstS 19:35, 29 February 2009 (CET)

Yeah it can be problematic, but weak isospin is a vector, so it should be T, and Tz for its projection. "T" for the "length" of the weak isospin vector is extremely rare because it's rarely talked about (and |T| can be used). I wouldn't be opposed to changing T (topness) to T accross all articles, but WP:PHYS should probably be consulted before doing so.Headbomb {ταλκκοντριβςWP Physics} 19:59, 29 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Why is your date off? It's Jan 29, not Feb 29.?

Stub?

[edit]

I don't think this is a stub. There is nothing more to be said about "topness". TH 90.136.123.210 (talk) 20:32, 12 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

truthiness?

[edit]

I may be mistaken, but I could swear that in my particle physics class we referenced "truthiness" from the 1970s papers. Can anybody confirm or deny? Obviously the ramifications of this would be enormous. SamuelRiv (talk) 20:36, 15 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I think truthness and truth have been used at some point, but I never heard truthiness. I'm going off memory here, and it might not be the most reliable thing however. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 22:07, 15 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

...then given it's only the half-life / mean lifetime, would some t hadronize? Alfa-ketosav (talk) 16:55, 31 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
