The Pauli Exclusion Principle applies to which particles?

  • Bosons

  • Baryons

  • Fermions

  • Leptons

Answer

The Pauli Exclusion Principle states that no two electrons (or other fermions) can occupy the exact same quantum state within a quantum system. Simply put, two fermions cannot be in the same place at the same time with the same quantum state. This principle is crucial for various properties of matter, such as the behavior of electrons in atoms and the stability of materials.
