Every time I write about particle physics, I encounter a moment of uncertainty about a quantity that, at first glance, ought to be clear. How many kinds of elementary particles should I say there are?
Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For decades, every known atomic and nuclear system has relied on at least two fundamental forces working in concert: the strong force binds protons ...
