I am very excited about this website because of the webpage. The page almost jumps out at me, I have bad eyes and I can see it clearly! Well down. My question is when my name comes up the word Baryon is under my name. What is Baryon mean? pljames

A baryon, according to the dictionary, is "a proton, neutron, or any elementary particle that decays into a set of particles that includes a proton." You'll have that title get better and better as you post more here on the forums.

 

Thanks for the compliments!

They're subatomic particles, made up of 3 quarks, examples include neutrons and protons.

 

In the context of the forums it is a rank bassed on the number of posts you've made.
