fermions

This principle was later found to be associated with the symmetry of wave functions for particles of half-integer spins in general, distinguishing what is now called fermions from the bosonic particles whose spins are integer multiples of.

The field theories constructed around these vacua are entirely equivalent, but transitions between these vacua result in the anomalous production of fermions, which is the method by which the baryon number may change.

A Nonperturbative Analogy Mark 2006

He talked about the various unresolved problems of the Standard Model, and the hypothetical theory called supersymmetry, which connects particles of matter, called fermions, with particles that carry forces, called bosons.
