Fermions: a) Quarks; up, down, strange, charm, top , bottom b) Lepton: Fundamental constituent. Weak force.

6 flavors, charged and neutral, includes muon, electron, tau, electron neutrino, tau neutrino, muon neutrino, Charged particles interact with Higgs field to generate mass. Hadron: Particles made of quarks: 1.) Meson (Boson) : 1 quark, 1 antiquark in strong force. Charged mesons decay (sometimes through intermediate particles) to form electrons and neutrinos. Uncharged mesons may decay to photons. 2.) Baryons (fermion) : 3 quarks, such as proton and neutrons, strong force

Boson: three kinds of gauge bosons: photons (which carry the electromagnetic force), W and Z bosons (which carry the weak force),( neutrino absorption). W is charged while Z is neutral. gluons (which carry the strong force, or color force). Mass: Higgs boson , Graviton
