Minicharged particles are hypothetical particles in particle physics that possess a fractional electric charge, typically much smaller than the elementary charge (the charge of an electron or proton, denoted as \( e \)). Instead of carrying a whole number of the fundamental charge, these particles might carry a charge that is a fraction of \( e \), such as \( \epsilon e \), where \( \epsilon \) is a small dimensionless number.
