WHAT DOES STRANGENESS NUMBER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Strangeness

In particle physics, strangeness S is a property of particles, expressed as a quantum number, for describing decay of particles in strong and electromagnetic reactions, which occur in a short period of time. The strangeness of a particle is defined as: where ns represents the number of strange quarks and ns represents the number of strange antiquarks. The terms strange and strangeness predate the discovery of the quark, and were adopted after its discovery in order to preserve the continuity of the phrase; strangeness of anti-particles being referred to as +1, and particles as −1 as per the original definition. For all the quark flavor quantum numbers the convention is that the flavor charge and the electric charge of a quark have the same sign. With this, any flavor carried by a charged meson has the same sign as its charge.

Definition of strangeness number in the English dictionary

The definition of strangeness number in the dictionary is a quantum number, designating the strangeness of an elementary particle, equivalent to the hypercharge minus the baryon number.
