According to the Sakharov conditions, the creation of these particles requires both a departure from thermal equilibrium and the violation of both C and CP symmetry. Gerard t'Hooft proposed a sphaleron interaction that could result in their creation, and their namesake oscillations can be seen in the large-scale spectrum of the CMB. A major unsolved problem of modern cosmology is the asymmetry of this class of particles with their anti-particles, and these particles account for about 4% of the total energy density of the universe, the rest lying in dark matter and dark energy.

For 10 points, identify these fermionic hadrons which consist of three quarks bound together by the strong force, and which include the proton and neutron.
