gauge boson
gauge bosonn. Any of a subset of bosons that are elementary particles and mediate one of the four fundamental forces of nature. The gauge bosons include the graviton, photon, gluons, and intermediate vector bosons.gauge boson n (Nuclear Physics) physics a boson that mediates the interaction between elementary particles. There are several types: photons for electromagnetic interactions, W and Z intermediate vector bosons for weak interactions, and gravitons for gravitational interactions Thesaurus| Noun | 1. | gauge boson - a particle that mediates the interaction of two elementary particlesboson - any particle that obeys Bose-Einstein statistics but not the Pauli exclusion principle; all nuclei with an even mass number are bosonsgluon - a gauge boson that mediates strong interaction among quarksgraviton - a gauge boson that mediates the (extremely weak) gravitational interactions between particlesintermediate vector boson - a gauge boson that mediates weak interactions between particlesphoton - a quantum of electromagnetic radiation; an elementary particle that is its own antiparticle |
gauge boson
gauge boson[′gāj ‚bō‚sän] (physics) A massless spin-1 particle, such as the photon and gluons, whose existence is required by gauge invariance in a gauge theory; such particles can acquire mass through spontaneous symmetry breaking, as in the case of intermediate vector bosons. Also known as gauge particle. gauge boson
