charge multiplet comparison table

Subject is part of has quantum behavior has number of quark has spin obey has synonym has mass has definition

nucleon nucleus Fermi-Dirac statistics 3 1/2 exclusion principle 939 MeV The generic name for the proton and the neutron.

pion Bose-Einstein statistics 2 -has source: Hopkins, J. 1976 Glossary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Chicago Press uncertainty principle π-meson 270 m_e An unstable nuclear particle of mass intermediate between that of a proton and an electron. The pions are believed to be the particles exchanged by nucleons, resulting in the strong nuclear force; they play a role in the strong interactions analogous to that of the photons in electromagnetic interactions.
