Outside the electromagnetic calorimeter is the "hadronic" calorimeter which detects the energy left by charged pions and other hadrons, particles which contain quarks, such as protons, neutrons, kaons, and many others. From Wordnik.com. [Discover Blogs] Reference
No one has much clue as to what it is but it seems to have to be assumed it is hadronic, otherwise why would it be anything as close as a factor 30 to the protons?. From Wordnik.com. [Danger, Phil Anderson] Reference
This was back in the day when quarks and gluons were just discovered and the theory of their interactions and their binding into hadronic states was being developed. From Wordnik.com. [Prizes Galore!] Reference
“hadronic” means “made of quarks”; almost nobody thinks the dark matter is hadronic, and in fact it would be extremely difficult to reconcile that idea with primordial nucleosynthesis. From Wordnik.com. [Danger, Phil Anderson] Reference
The neutrons are mostly produced by primary hadronic interactions in the first 1′€2 λint of the atmosphere and therefore measure the changes in cosmic ray intensity at altitudes above about 13 km. From Wordnik.com. [Unthreaded #14 « Climate Audit] Reference
Stan and Glennys showed that the probability of scattering between two mesons and/or baryons, A+B to C+D, is proportional to (or scales with) the total number of constituent particles bound inside the inital and final hadronic states A, B, C, and D. From Wordnik.com. [Prizes Galore!] Reference
Supposedly, muons are the only particle that can travel through the detector without showering and stopping in the calorimeters, but sometimes very energetic pions can make it through the hadronic calorimeter and punch through into the muon chambers. From Wordnik.com. [Detectors 101] Reference
It is a very positive development that new connections between string theory and other areas have developed - heavy ion physics, low energy hadronic physics, LHC physics, cosmology, mathematics, general relativity, and many areas of quantum field theory - and that many young people are taking advantage of the opportunity to cross these lines, and in both directions.

The second speaker was Wolfgang Gradl (Mainz) with a talk on hadronic uncertainties in flavour physics. From Wordnik.com. [Life on the lattice] Reference
This hope has now faded in light of new results, just as the hope for hadronic physics faded in the early seventies. From Wordnik.com. [The Reference Frame] Reference
Of course, air showers include not just muons, but electrons, neutrinos, and photons, plus protons and other hadronic particles. From Wordnik.com. [A Quantum Diaries Survivor] Reference
Nuclear Research «CERN» (Switzerland) for precise manufacturing and mounting of units for hadronic calorimeter Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS). From Wordnik.com. [WN.com - Business News] Reference
These in turn hit other nuclei, and the developing hadronic shower progresses until the hadrons fall below the energy required to create more secondaries. From Wordnik.com. [A Quantum Diaries Survivor] Reference
If you try to remove a quark from its hadronic host, the force between that quark and its partners does not decrease, so infinite energy would be required to pull it away. From Wordnik.com. [American Scientist Online] Reference
What happens is that a hadronic collision between the primary hadron and a nucleus of nitrogen or oxygen in the upper atmosphere creates dozens of secondary light hadrons. From Wordnik.com. [A Quantum Diaries Survivor] Reference
The problem is that the existence of these low-energy hadronic bound states does little to further our understanding of strong interactions, at least as long as they remain just mass peaks of unknown properties. From Wordnik.com. [Scientific Blogging] Reference
UE «MZOR» has a diploma for successful fulfillment of the order of European Center of Nuclear Research «CERN» (Switzerland) for precise manufacturing and mounting of units for hadronic calorimeter Compact Muon Solenoid. From Wordnik.com. [WN.com - Business News] Reference
We now know that hadronic physics is described by a particular quantum field theory, quantum chromodynamics, based on a particular gauge group, SU (3), with a particular set of matter fields (quarks), with a particular pattern of masses. From Wordnik.com. [The Reference Frame] Reference
Now, not only does the pictured process happen: it is actually happening at a mind-boggling frequency, high enough that a produced in a hadronic collision, which decays after traveling a few millimeters in the detector, may have oscillated back and forth a dozen times!. From Wordnik.com. [Scientific Blogging] Reference
The parameters governing the phenomenon can in fact be measured - with a lot of trouble, but they still can - in hadronic collisions, and a departure of their value from the very precise Standard Model expectation would be immediate proof that something in the description of the underlying physics must be changed. From Wordnik.com. [Scientific Blogging] Reference
Initially, string theory started with Veneziano’s formula 1968 for the hadronic scattering amplitude, which later got its string interpretation. From Wordnik.com. [Intelligent Design is Neither - The Panda's Thumb] Reference
Also, should Gell-Mann and Nishijimas 1961 (62?) classification of hadronic resonances (I think it was that paper) using group theory was rather pretty, but I’m not sure if that is the paper I’m thinking of. From Wordnik.com. [The Greatest Physics Paper!] Reference
