hadron, any member of a class of subatomic particles that are built from quarks and thus react through the agency of the strong force. The hadrons embrace mesons, baryons (e.g., protons, neutrons, and sigma particles), and their many resonances.
Which of the following particles are all hadrons?
Baryons and mesons are examples of hadrons. Any particle that contains quarks and experiences the strong nuclear force is a hadron. Baryons have three quarks inside them, while mesons have a quark and an antiquark.
What are the two hadrons?
There are two types of hadron: the baryon, comprised of three differently-coloured quarks and the meson, comprised of two quarks of one colour and the same anti-colour. Protons and neutrons, the constituents of the atomic nucleus, are baryonic.
