Noun
a gauge boson that mediates strong interaction among quarks
Source: WordNetDetails The fundamental couplings of the strong interaction, from left to right: gluon radiation, gluon splitting and gluon self-coupling. Source: Internet
A relevant illustration in the case at hand would be a gluon with a color state described by: : This is read as "red–antiblue plus blue–antired". Source: Internet
Color-charged particles interact via gluon exchange in the same way that charged particles interact via photon exchange. Source: Internet
In particular, it implies the existence of eight gluon types to act as its force carriers. Source: Internet
In the Standard Model, a force is described as an exchange of bosons between the objects affected, such as a photon for the electromagnetic force and a gluon for the strong interaction. Source: Internet
Kovtun, Son, and Starinets 2001 By applying the AdS/CFT correspondence, Sơn and his collaborators were able to describe the quark gluon plasma in terms of black holes in five-dimensional spacetime. Source: Internet
