He didn't.

Fermions sound like something really exotic, but in actual fact they're just electrons, neutrons and protons (and some quarks and other things). He didn't need to discover them, people already knew about them.

What Enrico Fermi did, was he discovered the statistics behind how electrons, neutrons and protons are arranged.

Because some particles follow these laws and others don't, they're divided into groups. Fermions are any particle that follows the laws Enrico Fermi discovered.

Bosons are the particles that don't follow these laws and instead follow the laws discovered by Satyendra Bose and Albert Einstein.

Who invented the Boson particles?

The "Higgs" of Higgs boson is well known to refer to Peter Higgs, the British researcher who in 1964 laid much of the conceptual groundwork for the presence of the elusive particle. What is largely unknown, at least to non-specialists, is that the term "boson" owes its name to the pioneering work of the late Indian physicist, Satyendra Nath Bose. In 1924, he sent a paper to Albert Einstein describing a statistical model that eventually led to the discovery of what became known as the Bose-Einstein condensate phenomenon. The paper laid the basis for describing the two fundamental classes of sub-atomic particles -- bosons, named after Bose, and fermions, after the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi.


How does a Walmart Discover Card work?

The Walmart Discover Card works very much the same as a regular Discover Card. It can be used anywhere Discover Cards are accepted. Additional benefits of this card include cash back options and travel and shopping deals.


Can you use a regular Discover card or do you have to use a Walmart Discover card to get 3 cents off for gas?

Walmart Discover Card -- it is a discount for individuals that have a Walmart card not a discount for having a Discover card. Kinda like Chase Cards -- depending on which one you have depends on what you can accumulate points to.
