exploration of the top quark , if confirmed , establishes one set of subatomic tower blocks that existent is predicted by the established theories , calling the standardized formulation , of the particles and forces that decide the subtle parts of matter and energy . in the whimsical encyclopedic of early physics , the principal particles are called quarks , leptons and bosons .
Quarks, leptons, and bosons are the three elementary particles of physics according to the Standard Model.
