Preon
In particle physics, preons are point particles, conceived of as sub-components of quarks and leptons. The word was coined by Jogesh Pati and Abdus Salam, in 1974. Interest in preon models peaked in the 1980s but has slowed, as the Standard Model of particle physics continues to describe physics mostly successfully, and no direct experimental evidence for lepton and quark compositeness has been found. Preons come in four varieties, plus, anti-plus, zero and anti-zero. W bosons have six preons and quarks have only three. In the hadronic sector, some effects are considered anomalies within the Standard Model. For example, the proton spin puzzle, the EMC effect, the distributions of electric charges inside the nucleons, as found by Hofstadter in 1956, and the ad hoc CKM matrix elements. When the term "preon" was coined, it was primarily to explain the two families of spin- fermions: quarks and leptons. More recent preon models also account for spin-1 bosons, and are still called ...

Tell Maon
Tell Maon (Arabic: Khirbet Ma'in) was a biblical town in the Hebron Hills, formerly known simply as Maon (), rising above sea level. The town, now a ruin, is mentioned in the Book of Joshua ( and the Books of Samuel (). It is located about southeast of Yatta. History The site is first mentioned as one of the cities of Judah.Amit (n.d.), pp. 222–223 Maon was the place of birth of Nabal the Carmelite. In , "the wilderness of Maon" is mentioned as a place of refuge for David when he fled from king Saul. The site is not referred to again in biblical sources, and only after the destruction of the Second Temple is there a reference to the site again, where Rabban Yohanan ben Zakkai is said to have gone up to Maon of Judah. In the early 4th-century CE, Maon was mentioned in Eusebius' ''Onomasticon'' as being "in the tribe of Judah; in the east of Daroma." The name "Darom" (Arabic: ''ad-Darum'') literally means "south," but in relation to the rest of Palestine it had the general ...

Eurybrachidae
Eurybrachidae (sometimes misspelled "Eurybrachyidae" or "Eurybrachiidae") is a small family of planthoppers with species occurring in parts of Asia, Australia and Africa. They are remarkable for the sophistication of their automimicry. Etymology The family name is derived from the Greek () and (), meaning "broad" and "short". This presumably reflects the shape of adults of representative species. Description Eurybrachidae generally resemble related families of planthoppers in the Fulgoromorpha. They are moderate-sized insects, generally 1 to 3 cm long when mature, but they are unobtrusive and camouflaged with brown, grey or green blotches, mimicking foliage, bark or lichens. Their mottled camouflage patterns are most intense on the large forewings of many species, hiding the broad and often aposematically colourful abdomen. The frons of the head is characteristic, being broader than it is long. File:Paropioxys jucundus dorsal.jpg , '' Paropioxys jucundus''dorsal view F ...

A different Maon ('' Khirbet Ma'in''), southeast of Hebron, near Carmel and Ziph, is mentioned in in the tribal territory of Judah, and not to be confused with Horvat Maon of the Negev. Others have sought to place Horvat Maon of the Negev with Beth-baal-meon () and Beth-meon (). Horvat Maʿon, under the name Menois, was the capital of Saltus Constantinianus, also known as Saltus Constantiniaces, an administrative district formed by either Constantine the Great or Constantius II. Excavations there have uncovered the Maon Synagogue :''This article deals with the ancient Maon Synagogue from the Negev, not with the ancient Ma'on Synagogue from the Southern Hebron Hill ...
