Subatomic particles are categorized into:
 
*[[Fermion]]s are "matter" particles, which include [[lepton]]s ([[electron]]s and [[neutrino]]s) and  [[hadron]]s (such as [[proton]]s and [[neutron]]s).
 
*[[Fermion]]s are "matter" particles, which include [[lepton]]s ([[electron]]s and [[neutrino]]s) and  [[hadron]]s (such as [[proton]]s and [[neutron]]s).
*[[Boson]]s are "force carriers", which include [[photon]]s (responsible for the electromagnetic interaction), [[gluons]] (responsible for the string nuclear force), the w and z bosons (responsible for the [[weak force|weak nuclear force]] and the [[higgs boson]] (responsible for mass).

The [[graviton]] is a [[boson]] theorised by some models and would be responsible for gravitation. It has so far not been detected.
