Boson

A particle with totally symmetric composite quantum states, which exempts them from the Pauli exclusion principle, and that hence obeys Bose-Einstein statistics. They have integer spin. Among them are many elementary particles, and some (gauge bosons) are known to carry the fundamental forces. Compare fermion.

Examples :

"Because the Higgs boson has integer spin and doesn't obey the Pauli exclusion principle, many of them can occupy the same energy state, allowing it to play a crucial role in giving other particles mass. "

Da das Higgs-Boson einen ganzzahligen Spin hat und nicht dem Pauli-Ausschlussprinzip unterliegt, können viele von ihnen denselben Energiezustand einnehmen, wodurch es eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Masse anderer Teilchen spielen kann.
