Mesons are subatomic particles with one quark and one antiquark. Mesons are important because they intermediate the nuclear force or the strong force. This is the force that holds together protons in the nucleus. They are often found in cosmic rays and high energy interactions but can be formed in particle accelerators. The first meson was discovered in 1947.
