Charm quarkThe charm quark, charmed quark, or c quark is an elementary particle of the second generation. It is the third-most massive quark, with a mass of 1.27GeV/c2 (as measured in 2022) and a charge of +2/3 e. It carries charm, a quantum number. Charm quarks are found in various hadrons, such as the J/psi meson and the charmed baryons. There are also several bosons, including the W and Z bosons and the Higgs boson, that can decay into charm quarks.
EtaEta 'iːtə,_'eɪtə (uppercase , lowercase ; ἦτα ē̂ta ɛ̂ːta or ήτα ita ˈita) is the seventh letter of the Greek alphabet, representing the close front unrounded vowel i. Originally denoting the voiceless glottal fricative h in most dialects, its sound value in the classical Attic dialect of Ancient Greek was a long open-mid front unrounded vowel ɛː, raised to i in hellenistic Greek, a process known as iotacism or itacism.
