A baryon:
Protons, neutrons, and other odd combinations of quarks.
The elementary particle for a neutron is called a quark. Neutrons are made up of three quarks: two Down quarks and one Up quark.
The elementary particle for a proton is a combination of three quarks: two up quarks and one down quark. This combination forms a proton, which is a positively charged subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom.
A baryon is a variety of heavy subatomic particle created by the binding of quarks by gluons.
A xi baryon is a subatomic hadron particle comprising three quarks, one up or down quark, and two heavier quarks.
Protons and neutrons are made up of three quarkseach.
The Omega-minus particle is composed of three strange quarks, so it has a strangeness of -3.
A particle that binds quarks to one another
There's two of them: up quarks and down quarks.
When we apply the term fundamental to particles, we refer to a particle that is not made up of other particles. As an example, an electron is a fundamental particle. It is not made up of other particles, and it is, therefore, a fundamental particle. The proton and neutron, on the other hand, are each made up of three quarks. (The proton has two up quarks and a down quark, while the neutron has two down quarks and an up quark.)
During the particle era, quarks were confined within particles such as protons and neutrons. They did not exist freely as individual particles.
Quarks, most particles made of quarks, leptons, and the W boson.
Protons and neutrons are made up of smaller particles called quarks. Each proton and neutron is composed of three quarks: protons are made up of two up quarks and one down quark, while neutrons consist of one up quark and two down quarks.
