A VERY CURIOUS THING. “It is difficult to isolate a single quark, the reason behind this is that quarks never exist by themselves, they always exist in groups. Quarks are basically of 6 types: up(u), down(d), strange(s), charm(c), top(t) and bottom(b) in which up(u), down(d) and strange(s) are three main types of quarks. Nucleons, we know are mostly made of up and down quarks but in nuclei of strange matter, strange quark is also present and they have very high density.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10509-018-3335-9 View in LinkedIn

CRYSTAL SYMMETRY. “Pasteur, with his work on tartrates, cemented this focus on arrangement by explaining optical activity as an asymmetry in the crystalline form. Historians have associated this move with the continuation of a vitalist position. But it is also possible to see it as a part of a tradition even older than vitalism, drawing upon a language of active principles whose malleability allowed it to shift between a description of its living properties and its effects on the human body.” https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00026980.2020.1867786 View in LinkedIn
