As a 21-year-old Princeton University graduate student working with Gross, Wilczek made the decisive breakthrough that gave us quantum chromodynamics, the fundamental theory of the strong nuclear ...

New Approach Merges Theoretical Fundamentals With Experimental Studies of the Proton’s Structure Advances in quantum ...

Nuclear scientists have developed a new theoretical approach that offers a more precise calculation of the 3D motion of ...

The latest addition to the computational arsenal of Jefferson Lab is an extraordinary machine with the admittedly ordinary ...

The protons and neutrons themselves are the basic bound states of quarks in the universe; how these states are formed from quarks interacting with the gluonic field described by Quantum Chromodynamics ...

Quantum chromodynamics (QCD), meanwhile, is the theory of the strong nuclear force. Transmitted by bosons called gluons, this strong, very short-range force binds quarks together to make particles ...

Non-Abelian gauge theories, such as quantum chromodynamics (QCD) or electroweak theory, are best studied with the aid of Green's functions that are gauge-invariant off-shell, but unlike for the photon ...
