      I found this after a Google: https://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/ParticleAndNuclear/gluons.html

      There are 8 types of gluon particles.

        If you are wondering what the hell I am doing subtracting particles from each other, well, that’s quantum mechanics.

        Sounds about right

        Physicists:

        This is just Occam’s razor again: a hypothetical particle that can’t interact with anything, and therefore can’t be detected, doesn’t exist.

        Also Physicists: 85% of the universe’ mass is missing!!!

          Those missing do interact on things, we just don’t know what they are. That’s why we know they’re missing.

      From Wikipedia:

      Unlike the photon of QED or the three W and Z bosons of the weak interaction, there are eight independent types of gluons in QCD.

      Glad I could help, lol

      There are 8 varieties of gluons, the subatomic particles that exchange the strong force between quarks. The person answered with one word that more or less satisfied the 8 particle requirement. I think that’s the joke, at least
