Contents of README:hepparticles --- for typesetting high energy particle names by Andy Buckley <andy@insectnation.org> ----------------------------------------------------------- hepparticles is a set of macros for typesetting high energy particle names. It provides a robust and consistent structure within which to typeset the names and along the way solves many problems with alignment and text styles which otherwise make themselves known. Chief amongst the problems solved by hepparticles is that the boldness of particle names typeset in math mode when used in section titles, headers and tables of contents disappears. hepparticles ensures that particle names remain bold, italic, or in sans-serif font to match the surrounding font context. The typesetting convention by default uses upright names for "concrete" particles and italic type for generic particle labels but the convention can be specified at package-include time, making this package suitable for use with journals which require alternative styles. hepparticles also applies small but significant horizontal shifts to sub- and super-scripts and overlines and tildes for antiparticles and supersymmetric particles respectively (as well as the extremely rarely used SUSY antiparticles!) and makes use of the subdepth package to ensure that all particle name sub- and super-scripts are typeset at the same heights. Fuller documentation for this package can be found in the files hepparticles.{ps,pdf}, distributed with the package and some examples (used for debugging) are in testhepparticles.{ps,pdf}, with source code in testhepparticles.tex. You may also be interested in the hepnames package, which uses this one to define a large set of standard particle names. This material is subject to the LaTeX Project Public License.
