Descriptor partículas elementales
Entry term(s) bariones
partículas fundamentales
Scope note: Componentes individuales de los átomos, generalmente subatómicos. Las partículas subnucleares suelen detectarse únicamente cuando se desintegra el núcleo atómico, y solo de forma transitoria, dado que son inestables al estar constituidas por pura energía, careciendo se masa, como por ejemplo la radiación.
