A meson is a subatomic “particle” consisting of a quark–antiquark pair. Suppose we have a meson consisting of an up quark and a much more massive bottom antiquark. The interaction between these point-like quarks is purely attractive, like that between oppositely charged particles. Which of the idealized models in this chapter might best describe this system’s possible energy values?

A. The quanton in a box model B. The Bohr model C. The simple harmonic oscillator model
