Leptons have various intrinsic properties, including electric charge, spin, and mass.
Unlike quarks, however, leptons are not subject to the strong interaction, but they are subject to the other three fundamental interactions: gravitation, the weak interaction, and to electromagnetism ...
electromagnetism ... is proportional to charge, and is thus zero for the electrically neutral neutrinos.
For every lepton flavor, there is a corresponding type of antiparticle, known as an antilepton, that differs from the lepton only in that some of its properties have equal magnitude but opposite sign.
According to certain theories, neutrinos may be their own antiparticle. It is not currently known whether this is the case.
