The Varlet Model of Physics

‘Varlet’ is a re-used archaic word meaning, among other things, a rascal. There are four varlets. The shape of a quark is a tetrahedron, with one varlet at each vertex. Three-quark particles have three quarks arranged around a triangle with gluons at the three apexes of the triangle holding it together. Two-quark particles have two possible arrangements.
