https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightest%20supersymmetric%20particle
In particle physics, the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) is the generic name given to the lightest of the additional hypothetical particles found in supersymmetric models. In models with R-parity conservation, the LSP is stable; in other words, it cannot decay into any Standard Model particle, since all SM parti...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasi-finite%20field
In mathematics, a quasi-finite field is a generalisation of a finite field.

Formal defi...
