Re: Summer Hiatus Challenge 2015 - TOC Day 2
Tough two-letter words
Each correct response is a two-letter word that can legally be played in Scrabble. Exact spelling is required.
2: In grammar, it's a coordinating conjunction; in logic, it indicates disjunction.
4: In Chinese, this game is called weiqi.
6: Note of the solfege on which the tune "Three Blind Mice" begins.
8: You don't need consonants to play this word for a type of lava.
10: You can use up an 8-point tile by playing this Scottish-origin word for a sweetheart.
Subatomic Physics
3: Murray Gell-Mann got the spelling of this elementary particle from Joyce's Finnegan's Wake.
6: Below about 7 Kelvin, electrons in lead bind together into Cooper pairs, resulting in this electrical phenomenon.
9: Gluons are the elementary particles responsible for mediating this force, one the four fundamental interactions in physics.
12: Pictured here, the type of diagram which describes the interaction of subatomic particles is named after this physicist. 15: Alpha particles, mesons, and the hypothetical graviton all belong to this class of particles, named after an Indian physicist, becuase their spin is an integer.
