Parameter | Description |
---|---|
name | The name of the particle (MANDATORY) |
image | The image for the infobox |
caption | A caption for the image |
num_types | The number of different types of the particle |
classification | The particle's classification (if applicable) |
composition | Is the particle an Elementary particle, or a composite – and in the latter case, what of? |
statistics | The type of particle statistics that the particle satisfies (e.g. Fermionic, Bosonic, Anyonic, etc.). |
group | The group into which the particle falls (e.g. Lepton, Quark, Gauge boson, Hadron, Meson, etc.). |
generation | Does the particle belong to the first, second or third particle generation (family)? |
interaction | The interactions that the particle takes part in – Gravity, weak, strong and/or electromagnetic. |
particle | See antiparticle |
antiparticle | The particle's antiparticle. Use particle instead if referring from an antiparticle page to a particle one. Wikilink if appropriate. |
status | The status of the particle – hypothetical, or discovered. Omit this if discovered field is given. |
theorised theorized |
When and by whom the particle was theorised. |
discovered | The date of discovery of the particle and the discoverer. |
symbol | The symbols that are commonly used to denote the particle. |
mass | The invariant mass of the particle. |
mean_lifetime | The average time until the particle decays. |
width | The decay width of the particle. |
decay_particle | The particle(s) that this particle decays into. |
electric_charge | The electric charge that the particle carries (e.g. +1 e). |
charge_radius | The particle's root mean square charge radius. |
electric_dipole_moment | The particle's electric dipole moment. |
electric_polarisability electric_polarizability |
