In particle physics, a boson (/ ˈ b oʊ z ɒ n / / ˈ b oʊ s ɒ n /) is a subatomic particle whose spin quantum number has an integer value (0,1,2 ...). Bosons form one of the two fundamental classes of subatomic particle, the other being fermions, which have odd half-integer spin (1 ⁄ 2, 3 ⁄ 2...).Every observed subatomic particle is either a boson or a fermion.

Gauge bosons are carrier particles for three of the four fundamental forces.In the Standard Model of particle physics, there are four kinds of gauge bosons.The three gauge bosons are as follows: W and Z bosons, which carry the weak force; Gluons, which carry the strong force; Photons, which carry the electromagnetic force; The only remaining fundamental force that has no known …

Auf jedes Fermion kommt rechnerisch ein Boson als supersymmetrisches Partnerteilchen, ein so genanntes Sfermion, so dass sich der Spin jeweils um ±1/2 unterscheidet. Die Superpartner der Fermionen werden allgemein durch ein zusätzliches vorangestelltes S-benannt, so heißt z. B. das entsprechende Boson zum Elektron dann Selektron.

Boson de Provence ou Boson V de Provence (né v. 844 et mort le 11 janvier 887) est un monarque lotharingien. Il est le premier à parvenir à imposer une royauté élective, autonome et indépendante, quoique précaire, au sein de l'imperium francorum du IX e siècle.

Et Higgs-boson er en elementærpartikkel postulert i 1964. Partikkelen er et skalarboson (et boson med spinn 0) som har masse, antakelig rundt 125 GeV/c², men ingen ladning. I juli 2012 ble det oppdaget en ny partikkel som kunne være Higgs-bosonet. Dette ble senere bekreftet. I partikkelfysikkens standardmodell forklarer den såkalte Higgs-mekanismen hvorfor …

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world's biggest and most powerful particle accelerator.It was built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research ().It is a giant circular tunnel built underground. The tunnel is 17 miles (27 kilometers) long, and between 50 and 175 meters below the ground. It is now the largest and most complicated experimental research facility in the world.
