Grain Size
Phi is a symbol used when describing grain size in sedimentology. Wentworth and Krumbian scales both use φ to describe the size of individual sediment particles.
This should be added to the list of scientific measurements that utilize phi.

alternate symbol
the first line "lowercase φ or ϕ" shows two identical symbols on my computer and it's not clear how they are distinguished. i'm not sure how you could guarantee that both different symbols are shown.
Additional Example for the Use of Phi as a Symbol

Phi is the symbol for the world of Phyrexia in the story of the card game Magic: The Gathering.
Edit: here's an article from wizards of the coast (the company who owns magic: the gathering) about the symbol: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/phyrexian-symbol-again-2011-05-18 Dodo Axolotl (talk) 16:26, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
