bosons, plural;
  1. A subatomic particle, such as a photon, that has zero or integral spin and follows the statistical description given by S. N. Bose and Einstein

  1. any particle that obeys Bose-Einstein statistics but not the Pauli exclusion principle; all nuclei with an even mass number are bosons
  2. In particle physics, bosons are subatomic particles that obey Bose–Einstein statistics. Several bosons can occupy the same quantum state. The word boson derives from the name of Satyendra Nath Bose.
  3. Bosön is a sports complex on Lidingö outside Stockholm in Sweden, and the headquarters for the Swedish Sports Confederation. Several Swedish national teams have annual training camps at Bosön.
  4. (Bosons) The mediators or force carriers of the weak force.  These are heavy compared to the carriers of the other forces.  There are three bosons that exist, W+, W- and Z0, where the superscripts correspond to the particles’ electric charge.
  5. (bosons) (in  subatomic particle (physics): Field theory; in  subatomic particle (physics): Electromagnetism )
  6. An arrow with a head with rounded knob with a sharp point projecting.
  7. A particle having spin that is an integer multiple of (h-bar).
  8. A force-carrier particle. Photons, gluons, W, and Z particles are allbosons. Another type of boson, the Higgs, is proposed as the mechanism by whichparticles acquire mass.
  9. category of particles that includes those with integer spin (mesons and mediators). Bosons were originally called "Bose particles." Physicist S.N. Bose set up a statistical system which these particles obey.
  10. a particle, or pattern of string vibration, with a whole number amount of spin; typically a messenger particle.
  11. any of a class of elementary particles not subject to the exclusion principle that have spins of zero or an integral number, as photons or mesons. ...
  12. The elementary particles are classified as bosons and fermions. Bosons have integer spin (0, 1, 2, ... in units of  ). The  "force particles" mediators of the fundamental interactions (gamma, W^+/-, Z^0, 8 gluons), are fundamental bosons. ...
  13. a particle which obeys the Bose-Einstein distribution function. Boson have integer spin. Examples include photons, phonons and composite particles have an even number of member particles. See also FERMIONS
  14. A class of subatomic particles that statistically behave in a way called "Bose-Einstein."
