Particle physicists are scientists who study the fundamental components of matter and the forces that govern their interactions. Their work primarily focuses on subatomic particles, such as quarks, leptons (which include electrons and neutrinos), bosons (such as photons and gluons), and other exotic particles that may arise in theoretical frameworks. The field of particle physics seeks to answer fundamental questions about the universe, such as: 1. **What are the basic building blocks of matter?
