13 fundamental Particles.....
There are, apparently 13 particales from which all matter and forces are made, can someone list them please, I had a go but I'm not sure if the theoretical ones are in the list, eg graviton's etc. Here's my list, is this anywhere near correct? or have I mis understood the whole thing?
Quarks: up, down, top, bottom, strange and charm: Electron, Nutron, photon, muon, lepton, graviton, gluon.
Would the Higgs be number 14?

The Standard Model has 12 matter particles and 4 force-carrier particles. These are:
up, down, charm strange, top,bottom QUARKS (6)
electron, muon, tau and their three accompanying neutrinos(6)
photon, Z boson, W boson and gluon (force particles) (4)
There may also be the Higgs Boson and of course each particle has its own antiparticle.
