nouna gauge boson that mediates strong interaction among quarkstype of:
Definition that contains gluon
- quantum chromodynamics a theory of strong interactions between elementary particles (including the interaction that binds protons and neutrons in the nucleus); it assumes that strongly interacting particles (hadrons) are made of quarks and that gluons bind the quarks together
- strong force (physics) the interaction that binds protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of atoms; mediated by gluons
- color force (physics) the interaction that binds protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of atoms; mediated by gluons
- strong interaction (physics) the interaction that binds protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of atoms; mediated by gluons
- qcd a theory of strong interactions between elementary particles (including the interaction that binds protons and neutrons in the nucleus); it assumes that strongly interacting particles (hadrons) are made of quarks and that gluons bind the quarks together
