A gague boson that carries the strong force and has color charge. Therefore, it also responds to the strong force. It keeps quarks together in hadrons and may form large "glueballs". See also: gague boson, quark, strong force, hadron, color charge, Debriefing, Journey - Gluon
smallest bundle of the strong force field; messenger particle of the strong force.
The carrier particle of the strong interaction.
a gauge boson that mediates strong interaction among quarks
a gauge boson of the Strong Interaction
a 'particle' of the strong force, which holds QUARKS together
a quanta of strong nuclear force
a subatomic particle that acts as a bonding agent that not only holds quarks together, but also holds the protons and neutrons together
a theoretical entity in modern particle physics which is hypothesized to glue quarks together
A particle that holds together quarks via the strong force. adron Any particle made of quarks.
The force carrier for the strong nuclear force between quarks. There are 8 varieties resulting from the SU(3) symmetry.
The elementary particle thought to be responsible for carrying the strong force (which binds together neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus).
A gauge particle mediating the color strong interaction.
The carrier particle of the strong interactions.
In particle physics, gluons are subatomic particles that cause quarks to interact, and are indirectly responsible for the binding of protons and neutrons together in atomic nuclei.
