Pronunciation
- IPA: /ˈhæd.ɹɑn/
hadron (plural hadrons)
- (particle) A composite particle that comprises two or more quarks held together by the strong force and (consequently) can interact with other particles via said force; a meson or a baryon.

- The weak decays of b hadrons are dominated by the spectator model process whereby the b quark decays to a c quark (or occasionally a u quark) with the emission of an external W, while the non-b antiquark or diquark acts simply as a passive spectator to the decay.

- One can use the lattice simulations, which do represent the rigorous consequences of non-perturbative QCD, as guidance for models of hadron structure.

- And hence colour, which was initially an ad hoc concept, later turned out to be an empirically confirmed reality of hadrons.
