“A crypto-exotic, by contrast, is a hadron that does not have an exotic quantum number, but does not have a meson or baryon body plan either.”

“The three colors are thus represented in this whole of a quark and a antiquark, which constitutes a meson.”

“If true, that would provide a second example of an asymmetry between matter and antimatter. The first example was a type of meson called a kaon.”

“Most particles are either mesons, which contain a quark and an antiquark, or baryons, which comprise three quarks or three antiquarks.”

“Kaons and pions are examples of particles known as mesons, which contain a quark and an antiquark.”

“In general, baryons consist of three quarks and mesons of one quark and its corresponding antiquark.”
