Let $K$ be a compact (Hausdorff) space, and let $C(K)$ be the Banach algebra of contunous functions on $K$ (with the usual $\sup$-norm). The enveloping von Neumann algebra of $C(K)$ is its second dual Banach space, $C(K)^{**}$.
Question:
Is it possible that the elements of $C(K)^{**}$ have some special name?
"Von Neuman generalized functions on $K$", or something like this... Or, maybe this algebra $C(K)^{**}$ has a special name... (excuse me my ignorance).
