# Oh man.
I couldn't remember much about gluons so I looked on Wikipedia to brush up. Now my brain is somewhere in my shoes.

The gluon is a vector boson; like the photon, it has a spin of 1. While massive spin-1 particles have three polarization states, massless gauge bosons like the gluon have only two polarization states because gauge invariance requires the polarization to be transverse.

# gauge boson, that carries the strong colour charge.
