The Eightfold Way was proposed independently by Yuval Ne'eman and Murray Gell-Mann to organize these things by their strangeness into octets and decuplets. Jets of this class of particles can be observed after collisions of high energy particles in a process known by their name followed by (*) “-ization,” since their constituents spontaneously combine due to color confinement. These composite particles are divided into two families based on whether they are composed of two or three valence quarks. The world’s most powerful particle collider is named after these things, since it collides the only stable, free type of them, the proton. For 10 points, give this name for the general class of particles that includes baryons and mesons and are tested at the LHC.
