==Key Stage 5==
===Meaning===
'''Bosons''' are a group of [[force]] mediating [[Subatomic Particle|subatomic particles]] or 'messenger particles' for the 4 [[Fundamental Interaction|fundamental interactions]] which can exist in the same place at the same time.

===About Bosons===
: '''Bosons''' can exist in t
: '''Bosons''' include:
:*[[Photon]] - A [[Fundamental Particle|fundamental particle]], without mass, and which mediates the [[Electromagnetic Interaction|electromagnetic interaction]] over an infinite range.
:*[[W-boson]] - A type of [[boson]], with [[mass]], which carries [[Electrical Charge|charge]] and mediates the [[Weak Nuclear Interaction|weak nuclear interaction]] over distances smaller than the [[diameter]] of a [[proton]].
:*[[Z-boson]] - A type of [[boson]], with [[mass]], which carries no [[Electrical Charge|charge]] and mediates the [[Weak Nuclear Interaction|weak nuclear interaction]] over distances smaller than the [[diameter]] of a [[proton]].
