Scalar bosons

Last Thursday I got schooled over at the Turtle. The topic was f0(980). It is a boson, like the photon. But unlike the photon, f0(980) is also a meson. Whuuu?

Was this whole post a trap to call out the replyguy midwits? On the Right side, we see this with Cernovich and Vox Day. Well, such is life; I've been wrong on this mine own blog several times...

It turns out that mesons, although hadron, made up of quarks... are also bosonic. So: how does that even work?

Tune into the comments over there to find out. Much maths. It seems what he have in f0(980) is such a boson as is also, in part, made of bosons - the strongforce gluons, if nothing else.

These large particles, as we need high-energy colliders even to find, are large. Is the Higgs made up of quarks and gluons?
