In Modern Greek, it represents either a voiced velar fricative /ɣ/ or a voiced palatal fricative /ʝ/. In Ancient Greek, it represented a voiced velar stop /ɡ/.

Before velars

Math and science Lower case

The lower-case letter γ is used as a symbol for:

gamma radiation in nuclear physics surface energy in materials science the Lorentz factor in theory of relativity The heat capacity ratio Cp/Cv in thermodynamics The activity coefficient in thermodynamics The gyromagnetic ratio in electromagnetism gamma oscillation in neuroscience Gamma Motor Neurons in neuroscience antibiotic concentration (1 γ = 1 µg/ml) in microbiology the power by which the luminance of an image is increased in gamma correction The Euler–Mascheroni constant In mechanical engineering, specific weight The shear rate of a fluid is represented by a lower case gamma with a dot above it: Austenite (also known as γ-iron), a metallic non-magnetic allotrope or solid solution of iron. Upper case

The upper-case letter Γ is used as a symbol for:

In mathematics, the gamma function (usually written as Γ-function) is an extension of the factorial to complex numbers In probability theory and statistics, the gamma distribution is a two-parameter family of continuous probability distributions. circulation in fluid mechanics As reflection coefficient in physics and electrical engineering The tape alphabet of a Turing machine Unicode
