hepnames --- a set of pre-defined high energy particle names built using the hepparticles package by Andy Buckley ----------------------------------------------------------- hepnames is a pair of LaTeX packages, heppennames and hepnicenames, providing a large set of pre-defined high energy physics particle names built with the hepparticles package. This means that the particle name macros can be used in and out of math mode, and will adapt according to the context in which they are called: for example, particles in a bold region of text or a section header will automatically be typeset in bold type. heppennames re-implements the particle names in pennames.sty, with some additions and alterations and greater flexibility and robustness due to the hepparticles structures, which were written for this purpose. hepnicenames provides the main non-resonant particle names from heppennames with more "friendly" names. The full list of macro names, as well as more general package documentation, can be found in the hepnames PDF and PS files. The full list of macros and typeset forms in various contexts are listed in the specific heppennames and hepnicenames PDF and PS files. Finally, the simplest choice is the hepnames package, which imports both heppennames and hepnicenames and accepts the same package options as those two. These packages are based around pennames.sty by Michel Goosens and Eric van Herwijnen. This material is subject to the LaTeX Project Public License.
