Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Leptons do not interact via the strong force but do interact via the weak nuclear force (and gravitation). Baryons and mesons interact via the strong force. Hadrons include both baryons and mesons. Nucleons refer specifically to the protons and neutrons found in atomic nuclei, which are examples of baryons.
