Mesons are combinations of two quarks.
The vector mesons have quark and antiquark spins aligned and zero orbital angular momentum, resulting in j=1. They have negative parity. The diagrams are plotted with strangeness on the vertical axis and isospin on the horizontal axis.
The rho vector meson has a mass dramatically larger than the pseudoscalar pi meson which has the same quark content, illustrating the extraordinary variation of effective quark masses.
