QuarkQuarks are theoretical elementary particles, originally proposed
independently by Murray Gell-Mann and George Zweig and named by Gell-Mann. They
have fractional charges and come in six types called "flavors": up,
down, charm, strange, top and bottom. They are the constituents of protons and
neutrons.
