Then we discovered, all the way back in the 1930s, a heavier cousin of the electron. This is called the muon. And famously, there was a physicist at Columbia, I. I. Rabi, who said, who ordered that? We did not know why the electron needed to have a heavier cousin involved. But now we know it's because this idea of the two quarks, up and down, and the two non-quarks, which we now call leptons, the electron and the neutrino, that pattern is repeated two more times. So there are three families of particles. There's the up quark and the down quark. But then there's heavier cousins, the charm quark and the strange quark. And even heavier cousins, the top quark and the bottom quark.然後,我們在 20 世紀 30 年代發現了電子的一個更重的表親。這就是μ介子著名的是 哥倫比亞大學的物理學家 I. I.I. 拉比,他說,這是誰定的?我們當時不知道 為什麼電子需要有一個更重的表親參與進來但現在我們知道了 這是因為兩個夸克的概念 向上和向下 還有兩個非夸克 我們現在稱之為輕子 電子和中微子所以有三個粒子家族有上夸克和下夸克但還有更重的表親 粲夸克和奇異夸克還有更重的表親 上夸克和下夸克
