Learning about dielectric waveguides in my EM propagation class, we got to the GH effect and I had to make this =)

Hähnchen means little rooster, btw.

So this is an article about Hähnchen energy.

Yes it is technically the diminutive form of Hahn which is german for rooster but "Hähnchen" is mostly just used to refer to the meat of any chicken. Like beef is the meat of a cow, Hähnchen is the meat of a chicken.

"chicken" is just the full form of "chick" anyways, i'd imagine most germanic languages do this, the same is true in swedish.

So "Goose Chicken-meat?"

To be pedantic there's also Hühnchen, but I don't think anyone makes that distinction
