As The Infinite Monkey Cage explores what we know about the subatomic particles that form our universe, ... and invented symbols for atoms and molecules. His notable conclusions are listed below.

The new subatomic particle is called the beauty-lambda baryon.It belongs to a group of particles known as baryons, which include protons and neutrons. These particles are made of three quarks.

Neutrinos are ghostly subatomic particles that can travel in a straight line for billions of light-years, passing unhindered through galaxies, stars and anything else in their path.

Muons are subatomic particles that are similar to electrons but around 200 times heavier. At high energy, they can easily travel through hundreds of yards of solid rock.

The Standard Model organizes the subatomic world into two broad categories of particles, known as fermions and bosons, according to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
