What else can I help you with?
Are electrons examples of hadrons?
No, electrons are not examples of hadrons. Hadrons are composite particles made up of quarks, such as protons and neutrons, while electrons are elementary particles that are not made up of smaller particles.
What are considered to be sumbatomic particles?
Subatomic particles are particles that are smaller than an atom. Examples of subatomic particles include protons, neutrons, and electrons, which are the building blocks of atoms. Other subatomic particles include quarks, leptons, and bosons.
What could be smaller than an atom?
The electron is much smaller than the atom it orbits. The photon, with a wavelength shorter than X-Rays, are also smaller than atomic radii. In general, this scale is the realm of particle physics, classified as quarks, leptons and bosons. Quarks are what make up the center of atoms, like constituents of protons and neutrons. Leptons are much less massive particles which are exemplified by electrons and neutrinos. Bosons are particles which give rise to force from fields. Examples of bosons are photons (which are particles of light) and gluons (which keep quarks together in the nucleus).

Is a boson heavier than a uranium particle?
No, bosons do not have mass in the same way as particles like uranium. Bosons are force carrier particles, like photons and W and Z bosons, which have zero rest mass. On the other hand, uranium particles, like uranium atoms, have mass due to the protons, neutrons, and electrons they consist of.
What Is the relationship between a Higgs boson and an atom?
The Higgs boson is analogous to other bosons (photon, muon, gluon, graviton, etc.) which couple forces. Atoms are composed of fermions bound together by exchanging various virtual bosons (e.g. electrons are bound to the nucleus by exchanging virtual photons, the protons and neutrons in the nucleus are bound together by exchanging virtual muons, the quarks are bound inside protons and neutrons by exchanging virtual gluons), no real bosons of any type exist in an atom (although some atoms are themselves bosons even though they are entirely composed of fermions).
The weak force is transmitted by.?
The weak force is transmitted by the exchange of W and Z bosons between particles. These bosons are responsible for mediating interactions that involve the weak force, such as beta decay and neutrino interactions.
What is all of the matter in the universe made of?
quarks and leptons, held together by gluons, W+ bosons, W- bosons, photons, and gravitons
What do bosons do?
Bosons are subatomic particles which have integer spin and obey Bose-Einstein statistics. There can be more than one boson at a given point in space with the same quantum state. Bosons are the force carriers. Known bosons are the photon (light), the gluon (strong force), the neutral weak force carrier, and the charged weak force carrier.
How do we explain particle classification in terms of bosons and fermions?
Bosons are particles that follow Bose-Einstein statistics, fermions are particles that follow Fermi-Dirac statistics. Another way of saying that is that fermions obey the Pauli exclusion principle and bosons do not.
What is smaller than a gluon?
Bosons are particles with integer spin which do not obey the Pauli Exclusion Principle, therefore a number of them may occupy the same quantum state.In general, all bosons can be classified as either mesons (composite particles) or gauge bosons (elementary bosons). Pions are examples of mesons, while photons are examples of gauge bosons.Since the name "boson" applies to a number of particles there can be no answer to this question.Bosons are part of 3 families of fundamental particles described by the Standard Model of quantum physics, and being fundamental means they have no known substructure - i.e., there isn'tanything smaller than a boson. (The same applies to quarks and leptons.)
Are electrons examples of hadrons?
No, electrons are not examples of hadrons. Hadrons are composite particles made up of quarks, such as protons and neutrons, while electrons are elementary particles that are not made up of smaller particles.
What are gauge bosons?
Gauge bosons are elementary particles (subatomic particles). An elementary particle is a substance that can not be broken down anymore. So to answer your question: Gauge bosons are the forces of what makes up nature. For example: Photon=electromagnetic force, gluon=strength, z and w bosons=weakness and gravitons=gravity (not yet observed). The different particles can be found on the Elementary particle table. I hope this partially answers your question.
What are gluons made of?
point particles that are bosons, they have no internal structure.
Are Gravitons sub atomic particles?
Yes, Gravitons are hypothetical sub-atomic particles / gauge bosons. These bosons are predicted to behave similarly to photons, having zero rest mass and infinite range, their force is predominant over very large distances. Like all gauge bosons, these are the mediators of what we experience as "force".
What is a subatomic particle known as?
They are leptons, bosons, hadrons, fermions etc.
What are considered to be sumbatomic particles?
Subatomic particles are particles that are smaller than an atom. Examples of subatomic particles include protons, neutrons, and electrons, which are the building blocks of atoms. Other subatomic particles include quarks, leptons, and bosons.
Smallest subparticle gluon meson or boson?
Gluons are force mediators, mesons are composite bosons, and bosons have an integral spin. Neither of these are the smallest particle. The smallest particles are quarks and electrons, believed to be single points.
