@oristarA,
Sigma x [times] sigma p is greater than or equal to h-bar over [or divided by] two.

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. H-bar ħ is the reduced Planck constant.

Does "reduced" refer to "simplified"?

In some applications it is useful to divide the Planck constant by 2π (2 times pi). The resulting constant is called the "reduced Planck constant".
