Meaning
The strong nuclear interaction is mechanism governing how hadrons affect one another.
About The Strong Nuclear Interaction
- The strong nuclear interaction is one of the 4 fundamental interactions governing how subatomic particles affect one another.
- Leptons are unaffected by the strong nuclear interaction.
- The strong nuclear interaction holds quarks together within baryons.
- The strong nuclear interaction holds protons and neutrons together in the atomic nucleus.
- The strong nuclear interaction is mediated by gluons.
The strong nuclear interaction is attractive at a range of 0.5fm to around 3-4fm and is repulsive below 0.5fm. |
