If everything goes to plan, that plan being the Standard Model, the three lepton flavors with their three corresponding neutrinos, the six quark flavors having three colors each, the six force carrier particles, the Higgs boson, and all of their corresponding, if applicable, antiparticles, will be the absolute smallest particles. So far, so good, as there is absolutely no evidence of anything smaller than these, and in fact, we've reached a point of experimental energy amounts where we can safely say that these are the smallest particles out there, assuming we're heading in the right direction with our Standard Model. If the Higgs boson doesn't end up being observed at the LHC, however, we're screwed.

To specifically answer your question, the electron, which is one of the lepton flavors, is one of the indivisible/smallest particles I was talking about.

Are photos made of subatomic particles?

No, photos are not made of subatomic particles. Photos are composed of photons, which are massless particles that carry electromagnetic force. Subatomic particles refer to particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons, which make up atoms.

Are silver and gold both made of subatomic particles?

Yes, both silver and gold are composed of subatomic particles. At the atomic level, they are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. These subatomic particles combine to form the nucleus and electron cloud of an atom, determining its chemical and physical properties.


Are elements the smallest type of substance?

Elements are the simplest type of chemical. An element is composed of atoms. Atoms in turn are composed of subatomic particles. However, all substances are composed of atoms, and there are no substances composed only of subatomic particles - at least, not on Earth. It is believed that there exist neutron stars composed only of neutrons. In that situation, you could say that the neutron is the smallest type of substance.
