There are lists of LaTeX accents in, for example, the »A (not so) short Introduction to LaTeX2e«, which is the first item on the Resources for Beginners forum post.

For example, \"u gives a »ü« as an umlaut, and \l gives the Polish »ł«. There's also \o (as in Brønsted), \AA (as in Ångström), \c c (as in façade) etc. There are also dotless i and j characters for some of those pesky accents that would interfere with the dot if it were present (compare \u\i to \u i, for example).

Thank You very much for help!
