| has gloss | eng: A strangelet is a hypothetical particle consisting of a bound state of roughly equal numbers of up, down, and strange quarks. Its size would be a minimum of a few femtometers across (with the mass of a light nucleus). Once the size becomes macroscopic (on the order of meters across), such an object is usually called a quark star or "strange star" rather than a strangelet. An equivalent description is that a strangelet is a small fragment of strange matter. The term "strangelet" originates with E. Farhi and R. Jaffe. Strangelets have been suggested as a dark matter candidate. and Witten. According to this hypothesis, when a large enough number of quarks are collected together, the lowest energy state is one which has roughly equal numbers of up, down, and strange quarks, namely a strangelet. This stability would occur because of the Pauli exclusion principle; having three types of quarks, rather than two as in normal nuclear matter, allows more quarks to be placed in lower energy levels. |

| instance of | (noun) (physics) hypothetical truly fundamental particle in mesons and baryons; there are supposed to be six flavors of quarks (and their antiquarks), which come in pairs; each has an electric charge of +2/3 or -1/3; "quarks have not been observed directly but theoretical predictions based on their existence have been confirmed experimentally" quark |

| has gloss | fra: Un strangelet est un état hypothétique de la matière nucléaire exotique, constitué dun conglomérat de 2 (doublet) ou 3 (triplet) quarks étranges (quarks s). Dans les conditions normales, un quark s est soumis à linteraction faible, et se désintègre rapidement en quarks u et d. |

| has gloss | heb: מוזרון (אנגלית: strangelet) הוא עצם משוער המורכב ממספר שווה פחות או יותר של קווארקים מסוג למעלה, למטה ומוזר. העצם עשוי להיות בכל גודל החל מפמטומטרים בודדים (אז יהיה בעל מסה כשל גרעין אטום קל) ועד גדלים משמעותיים יותר. כאשר גודלו מאקרוסקופי (בסדר גודל של מטרים ספורים לרוחב), עצם כזה נקרא בדרך כלל כוכב קווארקים או "כוכב מוזר". באופן שקול ניתן לתאר את המוזרון כרסיס קטן של חומר מוזר. את המונח strangelet באנגלית טבעו א. פרחי ור. יפה מהמכון הטכנולוגי של מסצ'וסטס ב-1984. המוזרונים הוצעו כמועמדים אפשריים לתפקיד החומר האפל. |

| has gloss | ita: Uno strangelet è una fisica delle particelle ipotetica, uno stato legato contenente dei quark di tipo strange che, se l'ipotesi di materia strana è corretta, potrebbero essere più stabili che gli stati legati di quark della materia ordinaria (quark up e quark down) come i protoni e i neutroni. |

| has gloss | por: Strangelet, strangelets ou ainda strange nugget são pequenos fragmentos de matéria estranha. Só existiriam se a "hipótese da matéria estranha" está correta, em cujo caso são o verdadeiro estado fundamental da matéria, e os núcleos são somente estados metaestáveis com uma duração muito extensa. |

| has gloss | rus: Стра́пелька («странная капелька», от ) — гипотетический объект, состоящий из «странной материи», образованной адронами, содержащими «странные» кварки. Странная материя рассматривается в космологии как кандидат на роль «тёмной материи». Русскоязычный вариант термина strangelet предложен Сергеем Поповым. |

| has gloss | spa: Los strangelets son pequeños fragmentos de materia extraña. Solo existirían si la "hipótesis de la materia extraña" es correcta, en cuyo caso son el verdadero estado fundamental de la materia, y los núcleos son solamente estados metaestables con una duración muy larga. El término strangelet, hiperdiminutivo de la palabra inglesa strange (extraño), se origina con E. Farhi y R.L. Jaffe. |
