We use a $q$-series identity by Ramanujan to give a combinatorial interpretation of Ramanujan's tau function which involves $t$-cores and a new class of partitions which we call $(m,k)$-capsids. The same method can be applied in conjunction with other related identities yielding alternative combinatorial interpretations of the tau function. WARNING: This page contains MATH-JAX
