==== Quarks ====
[[Quark]]s are the fundamental constituents of [[hadron]]s and interact via the [[strong force]]. Quarks are the only known carriers of [[fractional charge]], but because they combine in groups of three quarks (baryons) or in pairs of one quark and one [[antiquark]] (mesons), only integer charge is observed in nature. Their respective [[antiparticle]]s are the [[antiquark]]s, which are identical except that they carry the opposite electric charge (for example the up quark carries charge +{{sfrac|2|3}}''e'', while the up antiquark carries charge −{{sfrac|2|3}}''e''), color charge, and baryon number. There are six [[flavor (particle physics)|flavors]] of quarks; the three positively charged quarks are called "up-type quarks" while the three negatively charged quarks are called "down-type quarks".
