In particle physics, the hypercharge (a portmanteau of hyperonic and charge) Y of a particle is a quantum number conserved under the strong interaction. The concept of hypercharge provides a single charge operator that accounts for properties of isospin, electric charge, and flavour. The hypercharge is useful to classify hadrons; the similarly named weak hypercharge has an analogous role in the electroweak interaction.

超電荷(ちょうでんか、hypercharge)は、素粒子の強い相互作用に関係する量子数である。なお、物理学者は日本語訳の「超電荷」では呼ぶことはほとんどなく、英語名のまま「ハイパーチャージ」と呼ぶ。
