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
Quark spin- particles. The component of spin along a given axis – by convention the "z" axis – is often denoted by an up arrow ↑ for the value + and down arrow ↓ for the value −, placed after the symbol for flavor. For example, an up quark with a spin of + along the "z" axis is denoted by u↑. A quark of one flavor can transform into a quark of another flavor only through the weak interaction, one of the four fundamental interactions in particle physics. By absorbing or emitting a W boson, any up-type quark (up, charm,
