A favicon can also be made with utf8 encoding and SVG data which has to appear in the 'head' section of the HTML:
Here readers would see the link displayed as particle physics, not the hidden reference to the page Parton (particle physics), unless they followed the link or inspected the target title e.g. by mousing over it. If a physical copy of the article were printed, or the article saved as an audio file, the reference to the parton model would be lost.
