: In an academic paper I think this strikes the right tone. Curiously, "as we say in the profession" is pretty formal, but "as we say in the trade" is distinctly colloquial (and unsuitable here).

: Seems a good response, but IMO it is very unusual to write in the first person in a paper. "as we say...." it still seems very informal for a paper.

the technical term is, or, the technical terms are
Since you want formal English, I think this is the best way to say it.
Example sentence:
The technical term is hadron.
