Results for “Particle physics”

Fermions

Fermions are subatomic particles with half-integer spin that obey the Pauli exclusion principle, forming the building blocks of matter in the Standard Model of particle physics.

Bosons

Bosons are subatomic particles characterized by integer spin quantum numbers, forming one of the two fundamental particle classes alongside fermions, and playing a critical role in mediating fundamental forces.

W And Z Bosons

W and Z bosons are elementary particles that mediate the weak nuclear force, pivotal for processes like beta decay and the unification of electromagnetism with the weak interaction in the Standard Model of particle physics.
