Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 5c5
Baryons, along with mesons, belong to the family of particles known as hadrons, meaning they are composed of quarks. Baryons have three quarks, whereas mesons have a quark and an antiquark (or superpositions of quark/antiquark pairs) and so are bosonic.
