Expert Solution
Introduction:
  • In particle physics, elementary particles or fundamental particles are subatomic particles that are not made of sub-particles.

 

  • These fundamental particles include fundamental fermions which include quarks, leptons, antiquarks, and antileptons, and are generally called matter particles.

 

  • Then there are bosons which include gauge bosons and the Higgs boson called force particle responsible for interactions among the fermions.
