Particles that are composed of a quark and an antiquark. Mesons are short-lived particles that decay rapidly into leptons or photons either directly, or by first decaying into other types of meson. Their masses range from about 15% of the mass of a proton, in the case of the pion (pi-meson), to more than ten times the mass of a proton. Their mean lifetimes range from 2.6×10-8 s, in the case of t...
