Muonium (/ m juː ˈ oʊ n i ə m /) is an exotic atom made up of an antimuon and an electron, [1] which was discovered in 1960 by Vernon W. Hughes [2] and is given the chemical symbol Mu. During the muon's 2.2 µs lifetime, muonium can undergo chemical reactions.
Mu (/ ˈ m (j) uː /; [1] [2] uppercase Μ, lowercase μ; Ancient Greek μῦ, Greek: μι or μυ—both ) is the twelfth letter of the Greek alphabet, representing the voiced bilabial nasal IPA:. In the system of Greek numerals it has a value of 40. [ 3 ]
Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.
It is a special case of the general definition of viscosity (see below), which can be expressed in coordinate-free form. Use of the Greek letter mu ( μ {\displaystyle \mu } ) for the dynamic viscosity (sometimes also called the absolute viscosity ) is common among mechanical and chemical engineers , as well as mathematicians and physicists.
Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols is a Unicode block comprising styled forms of Latin and Greek letters and decimal digits that enable mathematicians to denote different notions with different letter styles. The letters in various fonts often have specific, fixed meanings in particular areas of mathematics.
Micro (Greek letter μ, mu, non-italic) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10 −6 (one millionth). [1] It comes from the Greek word μικρός (mikrós), meaning "small". [2] It is the only SI prefix which uses a character not from the Latin alphabet.
One entity, symbol ent, is the smallest amount of any substance (retaining its chemical properties). One mole is an aggregate of an Avogadro number of entities, 1 mol = N 0 ent. This means that the appropriate atomic-scale unit for molar mass is dalton per entity, Da/ent = M u , very nearly equal to 1 g/mol.
