kuch kahi kuch ankahi si ye zindagi ki kahani hain, kuch shabdo se bani to kuch khamoshi se buni ye dhadkano ki jubaani hain, Sirf meri ya tumhari nahi, ye har kisi ki kahaani hai........

Alpha Beta's in Math and Science

Long long ago, man marvelled without tire
About wonderful stars, the wheel and the fire
Conveyed his thoughts, by the utterance of grunts,
But this sufficed little, only for his early hunts.


When Signs were elite, he needed a means,
Thus language was invented, to begin his intervenes.
Later English became the language of the world, against all my wish
Due to the folks tall, courtesy of the British.


Alas! it will remain so, throghout my age.
But see our plight, the Inglish language
Has alpah-bet(a)s barely six and twenty,
As it turns out they are only meagerly pleanty.


Extra symbols we needed, to match the concepts, so many
and Greek was choosen, for some reason uncanny
And now...today, the onus of the notation,
Lies with the greeks (alpha betas') in the scienticic Nation.

**what follows may not be appropriate for all readers, reader discretion advised**



Alpha is a particle or a carbon or acceleration Angular,
Or it cud be a angle of a shape remotely triangular.

Beta is a function, or the intensity of sound
A transistor coefficient, or electrons that abound.

Gamma's a distribution, or simply the rays
It could be a function or a factor Lorentz.

The Kronecker Delta is a difference small,
Determinant of a Matrix or the calculus’s near fall.

Then comes the Epsilon the limit galactic,
Emissivity of things, or the pearmence electric.

Digmma is just an F, so is seldom used,
The Zeta is the damping, or the vorticity bemused.

Then comes the Eta, the co-eff of regression
The efficiency or a meson, or an index of refraction.

The Theta is a function or an Angle in Geometry,
Iota is root minus one, Oh! something imaginary!

The Kappa is a connection, or the electric constant
It could be thermal or a curvature blunt.
The Lambda is the big thing, a constant cosmological,
Eigenvalue or a baryon, or many a thing technological.

Mu is a muon, or something micro
Nu is a Neutrino, the frequency or or the Poissons ratio.

Xi is like an X, an canonical ensemble,
The Damping ratio or the Random variable.

The Omicorn is just an O, and the Pie is so famous,
A circles inverse ratio, of diameter to circumference.

The polar Rho could be a density,
The reshape operator, or just plain resistivity.

Then comes the sigma, conductivity or a sum,
The stress or a bond covalent, as a rule of the thumb.

Tau is the torque or a lifetime mean.
The Ramanaujan Function, or a Bayer prefix lean.

Upsilon is a Y, anathor particle basic,
Phi is the wave function or a flux magnetic.

Chi is a distribution or a Euler characterictic,
The electronegativity in a period, or a number chromatic.

Psi is the wavefunction in the schrodinger equation.
Omega is the solid angle or a frequency utopian.

Thus the Greek Letters enrich us and our Lives,
They are the base, on which all science thrives.
