Composite examples, including pions and kaons, have a baryon number of 0, consist of an equal number
Composite examples, including pions and kaons, have a baryon number of 0, consist of an equal number of quarks and antiquarks, and are called mesons. They obey a set of statistics developed by their namesake and Einstein. Members of one class of these particles act as carriers of the fundamental forces and include photons, gluons, gravitons, W, and Z particles.  Another type which has yet to be observed is sometimes referred to as the "god particle," because it is theorized to give mass to every object in the universe, and is named after Peter Higgs. FTP, name this class of particles having an integral spin and named for an Indian physicist.          |
