nouna stable particle with positive charge equal to the negative charge of an electrontype of:
Definition that contains proton
- electricity a physical phenomenon associated with stationary or moving electrons and protons
- neutron an elementary particle with 0 charge and mass about equal to a proton; enters into the structure of the atomic nucleus
- mri the use of nuclear magnetic resonance of protons to produce proton density images
- nmr resonance of protons to radiation in a magnetic field
- 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 interaction (physics) the interaction that binds protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of atoms; mediated by gluons
- antiproton an unstable negatively charged proton; the antiparticle of a proton
- proton accelerator a collider that collides beams of protons and antiprotons
- exclusion principle no two electrons or protons or neutrons in a given system can be in states characterized by the same set of quantum numbers
- magnetic resonance imaging the use of nuclear magnetic resonance of protons to produce proton density images
