- Three types of neutrinos each associated with one of three fundamental particles
- Description
- Three types of neutrinos each associated with one of the three major families of fundamental particles. The electron neutrino is associated with the electron and with the "up-down" family of quarks. Muon neutrino is associated with the muon and with the "strange charm" set of quarks, and the tau neutrino with the tau particle and the "top/bottom" quarks.

- LBL Research Review, Spring 1992, p. 33. Three types of neutrinos each associated with one of the three major families of fundamental particles (electron, muon, tau neutrinos). The association between specific "leptons" and neutrinos is based on the fact that collisions between neutrinos and matter give rise to certain leptons and no others.
