Taus (instrument)
The taus, originally known as the mayuri veena, is a bowed string instrument from North India. It is a form of veena used in North India with a peacock-shaped resonator called a ''mayuri'', and is played with the neck of the instrument on bow. References to the mayuri veena have been found in ''Malavikagnimitra'', written by the Sanskrit poet Kalidasa between the 4th to 5th centuries CE. The name ''taus'' is a Persian translation of the word 'peacock', or ''mayura'' in Sanskrit. It is believed that the taus was being played and adopted by for the Sikhs by Guru Hargobind, the sixth Guru of the Sikhs. Origin story Bhai Avtar Singh, a well-known taus player and ragi who practiced the historic style of kirtan, tells the story of the invention of the Taus in the following quote: "The ''taus'' was conceived by and designed by the 6th Guru, Guru Hargobind Ji. ..The Guru and his Sikhs were singing outdoors under a tree enjoying God and nature. As was the old tradition, the ...

Tau Particle
The tau (), also called the tau lepton, tau particle, tauon or tau electron, is an elementary particle similar to the electron, with negative electric charge and a spin of . Like the electron, the muon, and the three neutrinos, the tau is a lepton, and like all elementary particles with half-integer spin, the tau has a corresponding antiparticle of opposite charge but equal mass and spin. In the tau's case, this is the "antitau" (also called the ''positive tau''). Tau particles are denoted by the symbol and the antitaus by . Tau leptons have a lifetime of and a mass of (compared to for muons and for electrons). Since their interactions are very similar to those of the electron, a tau can be thought of as a ''much'' heavier version of the electron. Because of their greater mass, tau particles do not emit as much bremsstrahlung radiation as electrons; consequently they are potentially much more highly penetrating than electrons. Because of its short lifetime, the range o ...
