		Baryons are strongly interacting fermions — that is, they experience the strong nuclear force and are described by Fermi-Dirac statistics, which apply to all particles obeying the Pauli exclusion principle.
		Baryons, along with mesons, belong to the family of particles known as hadrons, meaning they are composed of quarks.
		Baryonic matter is matter composed mostly of baryons (by mass), which includes atoms of any sort (and thus includes nearly all matter that we may encounter or experience in everyday life, including our bodies).

	Baryon sweep - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the fictional universe of Star Trek, a baryon sweep is a routine maintenance procedure for starships, designed to eradicate them of unwanted baryon particles that have accumulated naturally over time.
		It is unknown why a baryon sweep does not eradicate a starship itself, in view of the fact that all but less than one part in a thousand of normal matter consists of baryons.
		The Enterprise underwent a Baryon sweep in the episode Starship Mine.

	Baryon sweep - Memory Alpha
		A baryon sweep is a procedure used to eliminate baryon particles from a starship.
		The baryons accumulate as a natural side-effect of warp travel and generally need to be removed every five years to keep harmful radiation from building up.
		The sweep is deadly to organic matter, and all lifeforms aboard a ship are evacuated to a safe location before the sweep is initiated.

		With the increased urban population, the number of houses with chimneys grew in pace and the profession of chimney sweep flourished.
		Chimney sweeps were often depicted in Victorian literature as heartless, abusive scoundrels typified in the book, ''The Water Babies'' by Charles Kingsley.

		There are some excuses to this, including the fact that the newer safer warp drives may not produce baryons.
		Other excuses could be modifications to the baryon sweep to prevent the damage of gel packs or that engineers remove gel packs before the sweep (But this would be time consuming, especially since a majority are in Jefferies tubes).
		This would also be applicable for bio-neural gel-packs, but then again, Intrepid-class engine design might've changed significantly enough to cause the Baryon Sweep to be not needed.

		Baryons (from Greek barys = heavy) is a collective name for heavy elementary particles, which includes protons and neutrons and therefore virtually everything that matter is composed of (except for the much lighter electrons).
		Of course, we have to assume that the baryon sweep actually removes only a certain, not further specified type of baryons or that it initiates some sort of nuclear reaction, turning contaminated, radioactive nuclei into normal matter again.
		The fact that the baryon sweep is absolutely deadly to all kinds of living organisms complies with the suggestion that a large-scale nuclear reaction takes place.

	STARTREK.COM : Episode
		The Enterprise, docked at the orbiting Remmler Array, is evacuated in order to undergo a baryon sweep, a procedure that scans the ship with deadly rays in order to eliminate accumulated particles which have collected on the vessel over years of space travel.
		La Forge informs Picard that because baryon particle levels from the ship are so high, a more powerful sweep than normal may be needed to clear out all the radiation.
		Picard contacts Kelsey, warning her against moving the volatile trilithium resin to Ten-Forward, where they are planning to go to avoid the sweep as long as possible.

		It seemed from my perspective that the hijackers were planning to stay on board during the baryon sweep, grab the trilithium resin, and then leave without anyone knowing.
		I certainly have other questions (such as how exactly they obtained the resin, and the mechanics of their suborning the real sweep personnel), but those are ones that merely add to the chaotic nature of the threat, not ones that cause problems with disbelief.
		But given that the most common baryons by far are relatively common things like protons and neutrons, a "baryon sweep" seems likely to remove most of the Enterprise.

	Starship Mine
		The Enterprise is at the Roemler Array for a radiation sweep intended to remove excess baryons.
		However, when Picard flees a boring party to get his saddle from his quarters, he finds that the crew making last-minute preparations for the sweep are not what they appear to be, and in fact appear to be terrorists.
		He then destroys the field diverter intended to protect the hijackers from the looming baryon sweep, and flees into a Jeffries tube, with Sadler in hot pursuit.

	Scientists Find Missing Matter [Archive] - Short-Media Forums
		Given that multiple simulations have continually yielded the same result, they theorized that the rest of the normal matter, known as baryons, must be hiding somewhere in the space between galaxies.
		When the study's authors extended the number of baryons in the two clouds to account for the volume of all the intergalactic clouds in the universe, the resulting figure equaled that of the missing matter from their computer simulations.
		The first is baryonic matter, such as brown dwarf stars, or even smalls dense chunks of heavy elements called massive compact halo objects (MACHOs).

		While the ship is undergoing a routine baryon sweep to cleanse it of the excess particles, the senior staff is attending Commander Hutchinson´s reception, an affair to be noted for its extremely boring nature.
		Captain Picard soon escapes to retrieve his saddle on the ship so that he can do a bit of horse back riding only to discover a plot to steal the volatile trilithium resin from the ship´s engine, a byproduct whose only use is for weapons.
		It´s about a terrorist group on the Enterprise while the entire crew are stuck on a space station...waiting for the "barion sweep" to get rid of some radioactive particles on the big E. Well as Picard returns to the ship to get his saddle he bumps into the terrorists.

		Stranded on the ship during a baryon sweep (a space-age decontamination procedure with a deadly beam that combs through the entire ship), Picard plays a ruthless game of cat-and-mouse against a well-stocked platoon, armed with little more than a crossbow and his wits.
		Plot: The Enterprise needs to be decontaminated, so everyone has to abandon ship temporarily until the decontamination process (baryon sweep) is complete.
		Well, Capt. Picard isn't too thrilled about this in the first place (I mean, no captain probably likes to leave a Galaxy-class dreadnought sitting unmanned for very long) as well as the problem of surviving the commander of the base.

		So the baryon sweep must be something very different or just an inaccurate nickname for a procedure that removes certain types of baryons.
