    More precisely the states must be formed of two up quarks, one down quark, one charm quark and one anti-charm quark.

    So... can you simplify the charm quark and anti-charm quark? Because that sounds adorable.

      that sounds adorable

      It does :) While other particles have greek(-ish) names, it looks like scientists decided to have some fun with quarks:

      They come in 6 flavors: up, down, strange, charm, bottom and top. And they have a color charge: red, green or blue.
