Leptons are elementary particles which have half spin.

Baryons are the subatomic particles which contains odd number of quarks.

What are sigma particles in ex-electrons?

Leptons is like an electron, Its a negatively charged.

Mesons is a like neutrons. Its a charge less.

Baryons like a protons. It has +ve charged.

Probably electrons (-ve charge) are leptons, neutrons (0 charge) comes under mesons, protons (+ve charge) are baryons.

A lepton is an elementary, spin-1/2 particle that does not undergo strong interactions, but is subject to the Pauli exclusion principle. The best known of all leptons is the electron, which governs nearly all of chemistry as it is found in atoms and is directly tied to all chemical properties. Two main classes of leptons exist: charged leptons (also known as the electron-like leptons), and neutral leptons (better known as neutrinos). Charged leptons can combine with other particles to form various composite particles such as atoms and positronium, while neutrinos rarely interact with anything, and are consequently rarely observed.

Leptons (from the Greek word for small) , mesons (means middle in Greek) and baryons (which means heavy in Greek).

*leptons are the lighter particles which can participate in week interaction ex-electrons, *baryons are the particles which can participate in both week n strong interactions ex-proton n neutrons. Mesons belong to baryons ex-sigma particles.
