Morphology

mesic = meson (transparent) = meson + ic

This is a regular adjective formed from the noun 'meson' with the suffix '-ic', so the meaning is compositionally predictable once the base is known.

Etymology

Mesic in physics comes from the word meson, which uses the root meso- meaning 'middle' because mesons are particles of middle mass, so mesic means 'relating to mesons'.
