Hi,
We say matter is something that has mass.
So, can we say lepton, quark, W and Z boson etc. are matters because they have mass?
If mass is the quantity of matter that a body contains, then these particles are matter.
Scientists also say fermions are the littlest units of a matter.
W and Z bosons also have mass but fermions are not their littlest units.
How can we describe mass and matter in modern science?
PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER WITH LINKS.
Thanks a lot.
