Andy Buckley submitted an update to the

                HEPparticles

package.

Version number: 2.0
License type: lppl

Summary description: Macros for typesetting high energy physics
particle names.

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 2.0 is a major update which completely reworks the underlying
typesettign machinery. Several package options and macros have been
removed along with this implementation clean-up.

Previously hacky implementations of superscript & subscript height
control and font context styling are now done much better via the
subdepth package and proper use of NFSS attributes and math alphabets.
The maybemath package is no longer required. 

Also , horizontal placements of sub/superscripts in various particle
classes (barred, tilded, bold, sans, upright, etc.) have been greatly
improved for the standard Computer Modern font and user-settable macros
are now provided to allow tweaking of these positions for other fonts.
