What are Quarks? - ANSWERS--quarks are the fundamental particles that
experience the strong force and make up the hadrons (Hint: they combine to make
protons and neutrons)
What are Leptons? - ANSWERS--Leptons are a family of 6 particles which do not
experience the strong force (Hint: the electron is a member of this family)
What are Bosons? - ANSWERS--Bosons are the family of force mediating particles
Which boson is associated with the Electromagnetic force? - ANSWERS--The
photon is the boson particle associated with the electromagnetic force
Which boson is associated with the Strong nuclear force? - ANSWERS--The gluon
particle is the boson associated with the strong nuclear force
Which boson is associated with the Weak nuclear force? - ANSWERS--The W,Z
particle bosons are associated with the weak nuclear force
What is a Hadron? - ANSWERS--A hadron is a particle made up of quarks
