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
The particle's electric polarisability.
magnetic_moment The particle's magnetic dipole moment.
magnetic_polarisability
