Flavour

Flavours are the different types, or species of Fundamental Particles. There are six flavours of quarks and six flavours of leptons. They are parameterized using flavour quantum numbers.

Flavour Quantum Numbers

  • Isospin (\(I\) or \(I_3\))
  • Charm (\(C\))
  • Strangeness (\(S\))
  • Topness (\(T\))
  • Bottomness (\(B'\))
  • Baryon Number (\(B\))
  • Lepton Number (\(L\))
  • Weak Isospin (\(T\) or \(T_3\))
  • Electric Charge (\(Q\))
  • X-Charge (\(X\))

Combinations

  • Hypercharge
  • Weak hypercharge
