Rice scientists theorize the existence of new particles other than bosons and fermions
A groundbreaking study by Rice University physicist Kaden Hazzard and former student Zhiyuan Wang has established the ...
Scientists Just Discovered an Impossible Particle
Don Lincon, a senior scientist at the U.S. particle physics laboratory Fermilab, describes bosons as “puppies of the subatomic world” because you can have an unlimited number of bosons in the same ...

The Standard Model Bosons
These four fundamental forces exist between fermions (quarks and leptons). They arise from the exchange of bosons. Bosons are the 'force carrying' or 'force-mediating' particles. If a fermion ...

‘Impossible’ particles may actually be real, according to these findings
Unlike the familiar fermions (like electrons) and bosons (photons), paraparticles follow a different set of quantum rules. Green’s theory, known as parastatistics, suggested that these particles ...
