Thanks for sharing, Xenoview. This is fascinating. The inner workings of the strong nuclear force in binding quarks to compose protons and neutrons is getting us closer to the ultimate basics of reality. I love reading about this.

Science is cool. God stuff is childish
Thanks! I love reading the results of CERN experiments. Communicated in non-mathematical laymen terms , of course.
I try to add a bit of knowledge each day. It quickly gets complex...
Baryon, any member of one of two classes of hadrons (particles built from quarks and thus experiencing the strong nuclear force). Baryons are heavy subatomic particles that are made up of three quarks. Both protons and neutrons, as well as other particles, are baryons. (The other class of hadronic particle is built from a quark and an antiquark and is called a meson.)

The rate of scientific progress is bewildering, even for those of us who try to keep up with it.
What I always find mind-blowing is how good the theoretical models must be to allow physicists to predict what particle exists and even calculate their properties, long before the technology exists to manufacture them; and then to have the observations match so well with prediction when the technology finally does exist. It's like going to a fortune teller that can actually predict the future!
