Description

English: A diagram summarizing the tree-level interactions between elementary particles described in the Standard Model. Vertices (darkened circles) represent types of particles, and edges (blue arcs) connecting them represent interactions that can take place. The organization of the diagram is as follows: the top row of vertices (leptons and quarks) are the matter particles; the second row of vertices (photon, W/Z, gluons) are the force mediating particles; and the bottom row is the Higgs boson.

Italiano: Un diagramma che riassume le interazioni a livello di albero tra le particelle elementari descritte nel Modello Standard. I vertici (cerchi oscurati) rappresentano tipi di particelle e i bordi (archi blu) che li collegano rappresentano le interazioni che possono aver luogo. L'organizzazione del diagramma è la seguente: la riga superiore dei vertici (leptoni e quark) sono le particelle di materia; la seconda fila di vertici (fotone, W/Z, gluoni) sono le particelle che mediano la forza; e la riga inferiore è il bosone di Higgs.
