Parameter	Description
name	The name of the particle (MANDATORY)
image	The image for the infobox
caption	A caption for the image
num_types	The number of different types of the particle
classification	The particle's classification (if applicable)
composition	Is the particle an Elementary particle, or a composite – and in the latter case, what of?
statistics	The type of particle statistics that the particle satisfies (e.g. Fermionic, Bosonic, Anyonic, etc.).
group	The group into which the particle falls (e.g. Lepton, Quark, Gauge boson, Hadron, Meson, etc.).
generation	Does the particle belong to the first, second or third particle generation (family)?
interaction	The interactions that the particle takes part in – Gravity, weak, strong and/or electromagnetic.
particle	See antiparticle
antiparticle	The particle's antiparticle. Use particle instead if referring from an antiparticle page to a particle one. Wikilink if appropriate.
status	The status of the particle – hypothetical, or discovered. Omit this if discovered field is given.
theorised theorized	When and by whom the particle was theorised.
discovered	The date of discovery of the particle and the discoverer.
symbol	The symbols that are commonly used to denote the particle.
mass	The invariant mass of the particle.
mean_lifetime	The average time until the particle decays.
width	The decay width of the particle.
decay_particle	The particle(s) that this particle decays into.
electric_charge	The electric charge that the particle carries (e.g. +1 e).
charge_radius	The particle's root mean square charge radius.
electric_dipole_moment	The particle's electric dipole moment.
electric_polarisability electric_polarizability	The particle's electric polarisability.
magnetic_moment	The particle's magnetic dipole moment.
magnetic_polarisability magnetic_polarizability	The particle's magnetic polarisability.
colour_charge color_charge	The colour charge that the particle carries. What types?
spin	The spin that the particle has (e.g. ⁠1/2⁠ ħ or just ⁠1/2⁠).
num_spin_states	The number of spin states that the particle has.
lepton_number	The particle's lepton number.
baryon_number	The particle's baryon number.
strangeness	The particle's strangeness.
charm	The particle's charm.
bottomness	The particle's bottomness.
topness	The particle's topness.
isospin	The particle's isospin.
weak_isospin	The particle's weak isospin.
weak_isospin_3	The particle's 3rd component of weak isospin.
hypercharge	The particle's hypercharge.
weak_hypercharge	The particle's weak hypercharge.
chirality	The particle's chirality – left- or right-handed.
B-L	The particle's B − L value.
X_charge	The particle's X charge.
parity	The particle's parity.
g_parity	The particle's G parity.
c_parity	The particle's C parity.
r_parity	The particle's R parity.
