Updated lepton Package Diagram | Webel IT Australia

Both Muon and Tau now also have antiparticles that are «antimatter», and they now also share common aspects via intermediate abstract blocks AbstractMuon and AbstractTau respectively.

Note that only the names of the Associations Anti have been shown, the Property ends and «antiparticle» Dependencies exist in the model but are not displayed, because this is a package diagram and we don't want too much information here yet; they can be represented more verbosely in related BDDs such as for ChargedLepton or the concrete Electron etc.

Recall that this aspect has not yet been resolved:

Wikipedia: 'According to certain theories, neutrinos may be their own antiparticle. It is not currently known whether this is the case.'

So there are no intermediate abstractions for the various concrete neutrinos yet, they don't have any declared antiparticles yet, and they aren't indicated as «matter» or «antimatter».

Snippets (quotes/extracts)

There are six types of leptons, known as flavours, grouped in three generations.

The first-generation leptons, also called electronic leptons, comprise the electron ( e− ) and the electron neutrino ( ν e);

the second are the muonic leptons, comprising the muon ( μ− ) and the muon neutrino ( ν μ);

and the third are the tauonic leptons, comprising the tau ( τ− ) and the tau neutrino ( ν τ)

The best known of all leptons is the electron.

According to certain theories, neutrinos may be their own antiparticle. It is not currently known whether this is the case.
