A quark and an anti - quark combine to form a meson. The pi-meson family is made up of u and d quarks only. A pi-meson can be positively, negatively or neutrally charged.
Give the quark composition of each of the 3 types of pi-meson.
The positively charged pion has a composition of an anti down quark and an up quark.
The neutrally charged pion has a composition of an anti-up quark and an up quark + an anti down quark and a down quark / square root of 2. What does this mean??
What is the composition of the negatively charged pi meson?
Is it these 3 types of mesons it is asking me for the compositions of?
