The Nuclear Warden: Gluon
from Quirkcast Hosted by Quirkcast
What keeps our nuclei stuck together? It's the somewhat less well-known particle, gluon. They reason we don't see it very much is because it is doing a superb job at jail-keeping its nuclear constituents. Gluons' peculiar abilities to keep things together may also provide us unlimited clean energy in the future. In this episode we'll describe just how the gluon manages to do its jobs and its importance for our Universe. Visit http://www.quirkcast.org/ Discord: https://discord.gg/7c6myZ8Z
