Mu (uppercase Μ, lowercase μ; Ancient Greek μῦ [myː]), Modern Greek Μι or Μυ [mi]) is the 12th letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals it has a value of 40. Mu was derived from the Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for water (𓈖) which had been simplified by the Phoenicians and named after their word for water, to become 𐤌. Letters that arose from Mu include the Roman M and the Cyrillic letter М. Sounds like 'mee'.

In particle physics: the elementary particles called the muon and antimuon In Pharmacology: an important opiate receptor In thermodynamics: the chemical potential of a system or component of a system.

In music: Mu major chord ComputingIn Unicode, the upper and lower case mu are encoded at U+039C and U+03BC respectively. In ISO 8859-7 they are encoded at CCHEX and ECHEX. In HTML code, the μ character is represented by "μ", "μ" and the entity "μ".
The micro sign or micron is considered a distinct character from the Greek alphabet letter by Unicode for historical reasons (although it is a homoglyph) and is found at U+00B5 as well as position B5HEX in ISO 8859-1, 3, 8, 9, 13 and 15, and thus in the corresponding Windows code pages Windows-1252 etc. In HTML code, the µ symbol is represented by "µ", "µ" and the entity "µ". When Alt-0181 or the DOS legacy Alt+230 is typed into an editable field using the numeric keypad in Microsoft Windows, the µ symbol appears. Also pressing AltGr + M results in a µ on some keyboard layouts.
Because µ is the abbreviation for the metric system prefix micro-, the symbol is used in many word plays about the field of micro-computing. For example, the symbol is used in the name and logo of the popular bittorrent client, µTorrent. Also, the microcontrollers are commonly represented in schematics as µC. It is sometimes simply substituted with a u, the most similar-looking ASCII glyph, eg. uTorrent.
