Description: The pattern of weak isospin, T3, and weak hypercharge, YW, of the known elementary particles, showing electric charge along the weak mixing angle. The four components of the Higgs field (squares) break the electroweak symmetry and interact with other particles to give them mass, with three components becoming part of the massive W and Z bosons. Allowed decays of the neutral Higgs boson, H, (circled) satisfy electroweak charge conservation.
