Boson is a subatomic particle that follows Bose–Einstein statistics. Bosons make up one of the two classes of particles other is fermions. The name boson was given by Paul Dirac for the contribution of the Indian physicist Satyendra Nath Bose for developing Einstein statistics along with Einstein, which theorizes the characteristics of elementary particles.
