Gin The National Jenever Museums are located in Hasselt, Belgium, and Schiedam, the Netherlands. The name "gin" is a shortened form of the older English word "genever", related to the French word "genièvre" and the Dutch word "jenever". All ultimately derive from "juniperus", the Latin for juniper. Although several different styles of gin have evolved, it is legally differentiated into four categories in the European Union, which are described as follows. In the EU, the minimum bottled alcoholic strength for gin, distilled gin, and London gin is 37.5 per cent ABV. In the United States, gin is defined as an alcoholic
Flavour (particle physics) description of the flavour symmetry is described by a chiral group . If all quarks had non-zero but equal masses, then this chiral symmetry is broken to the "vector symmetry" of the "diagonal flavour group" , which applies the same transformation to both helicities of the quarks. This reduction of symmetry is a form of "explicit symmetry breaking". The amount of explicit symmetry breaking is controlled by the current quark masses in QCD. Even if quarks are massless, chiral flavour symmetry can be spontaneously broken if the vacuum of the theory contains a chiral condensate (as it does in low-energy
