将“西塔粒子”更名为“杰斯特粒子”一事,仍有部分员工抵触。有人认为这个名字很“蠢”,完全不符合科学界命名新粒子的传统。我已经提醒过他们,科学界还有过“砰响”“砷唑”“系带”之类的名词。相比之下,杰斯特粒子已经算是很好的名字了。
英文原文
There is still some staff resistance to the rebranding of ‘Theta Particles’ as the ‘Jestron’. Some feel that it is a ‘silly’ name that holds no place within the history of scientific naming particles. I have reminded them that science had given us terms as ‘Thunking’, ‘Arsole’ and ‘Fartulum’, and comparatively the Jestron is an excellent name.
