(20) Marie is a teaching assistant , one of 2,700 TAs across County Durham in line for the chop and drop .
Tau
Definition:
(n.) The common American toadfish; -- so called from a marking resembling the Greek letter tau (/).
Example Sentences:
(1) For each temporal position of the independent noise, discriminability was a function of the ratio of the duration of the independent noise (tau) to the total burst duration.

(7) In this study we confirmed this finding in two cases of PSP by using Bodian silver staining and immunohistochemistry with antibody to human tau protein.
