Quark (dairy product) a somewhat crumbly texture (like ricotta). The basic quark this basic quark or skimmed quark ("Magerquark") must under German Law have less than 10% fat by dry mass. Quark with higher fat content is made by adding cream after cooling. It has a very smooth and creamy texture and is slightly sweet (unlike sour cream). A firmer version called "Schichtkäse" (layer cheese) is often used for baking. Schichtkäse is distinguished from quark by having an added layer of cream sandwiched between two layers of quark. Quark is also often sold flavored with herbs, spices, or fruit. In general, dry mass
Top quark of a weak isospin doublet. The top quark was sometimes called "truth quark" in the past, but over time "top quark" became the predominant use. The proposal of Kobayashi and Maskawa heavily relied on the GIM mechanism put forward by Sheldon Lee Glashow, John Iliopoulos and Luciano Maiani, which predicted the existence of the then still unobserved charm quark. When in November 1974 teams at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) simultaneously announced the discovery of the J/ψ meson, it was soon after identified as a bound state of the missing charm quark with its
