Hadrons  are not fundamental particles . They are all made from smaller particles, quarks.

The properties of a hadron are due to the combined properties of the quarks that it is made from.

There are two categories of Hadrons: Baryons and Mesons.


Mesons . These are made from a quark and an antiquark
