QCD: Quantum Chromodynamics

Ғылым және технология

The strongest force in the universe is the strong nuclear force and it governs the behavior of quarks and gluons inside protons and neutrons. The name of the theory that governs this force is quantum chromodynamics, or QCD. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln explains the intricacies of this dominant component of the Standard Model.

    Whoo hoo, you are finally getting into QCD. I hope you can go more into depth with QCD at some point. In order to explain some of the points regarding asymptotic freedom, and how weird it is (you touched on it in this vid, but I would like it if you went more in depth, in some future video) creating mesons with the excess gluon energy so it is absolutely impossible to ever see a single quark. Likewise, that the Strong Nucelar Force is just a tiny bit of left over force leaking out of the quark-gluon interaction. It really blew my mind, and continues to do so, knowing we only exist because the gluon field is so strong that tiny bits that leak out of it are what holds nucleons together. That the tiny bit of excess energy leaking out of the system is so strong, that it remains the strongest force in the universe, even though it is basically just race amounts getting out due to confinement.

    Thank you for clear explanation. By the way, I suppose that the term "Quantum Chromo-Dynamics" is like that of 3 linguistic fun. Namely, the 'Quantum' derives from Latin, 'Chromo' from Greek and 'Dynamics' is English in itself. Eventually the usage of these 3 sorts of languages is the same idea of 3 sorts of coloristic tiny particles in the mother bowl, I perceive. Very ingenious and reasonable usage. Yes, that's the same term as 3 characteristic languages vs particles. So be happy !

    Thanks a lot. 👍 I do appreciate it! 3:06 In any event, unlike electric charge, which comes in two varieties: plus and minus, the strong charge comes in three varieties, named red, blue and green, anain, nothing to do with regular color. The particles that the colored quarks exchange are not photons, but rather particles called gluons. The photon is the particle of electromagnetic force and the gluon is the particle of the strong force. And, in analogy with QED or quantum ELECTROdynamics, we call this theory QCD for quantum CHROMOdynamics. Get it? Chromo? Color? Alright, sometimes I'm a little embarrassed by my tribe. For those of you who are fans of Feynman diagrams, we draw an exchanged photon as a wavy line, while a gluon is a corkscrew. And, just like all Feynman diagram, the Feynman diagram of two quarks exchanging a gluon orresponds to an equation that a sufficiently diligent stuend can solve. ... So how is QCD different from QED? Both involved exchanging force carrying particles between other particles carrying charge. The photon is massless. The gluon is massless. The photon has no electric charge. The gluon has no- oh wait a minute ... there's a difference. Gluons carry the strong charge. They have color. And that little different has a huge consequence. 4:28 5:42 But here's the tricy thing. When we break it, the energy that was stored in the string converts into matter and antimatter, specifically quarks and antiquarks. This process can go on for a while with more stretching and breaking and creating quarks and antiquark pairs. In the end, the particles all pairs up and what we get is a bunck of particles all travelling more or less in the same direction as the quark that got knocked out of the nucleon. Physicists call this blast of particles a jet. 6:09 And we see jets all the time. Here is a picture of a real even collision in the CMS detector, 6:12 one of the big LHC experiments. See those sprays of particles? Those are jets. So those are the big ideas of quantum chromodynamics. The strong force has a different charge and force carrying particle than quantum electrodynamics, but, in some respects, theay aren't so incredibly different. The big difference is the fact that the force carrying particles is itself charged with, as we have seen, dramatic consequences. The subatomic realm is really a pretty crazy place. 👍

    Dr Lincolm - in your presentation , quarks are depicted as flying randomly about with the sphere of a nucleon , making sudden changes in path via some acute angles and yet bouncing seemingly elastically of the spherical external wall of the nucleon. Is this correct ? Are nucleons under normal circumstances - outside of the accelerator free to move about in these chaotic patterns and yet instantly constrained and redirected when they hit the “wall” of the nucleons perimeter ? If this is the case than I seems as if the “wall” of the nucleon must itself be made of some solid structure such that it can redirect the quark back into the sphere as If it had impacted the edge of a pool table. Thanks much for the discussion,.

    I guess that depends on if there are any remaining symmetries in the topology of k in your gallois representations for further dimensionality, or if you've already arrived at your del0 Z transform right? If it's zero their higher dim duality is fundamentally unitary at Csub0. Otherwise they are further decomposable, I think? Quantum harmonics are hard >.< Especially when you're working with relativistic chromogeometries with fundamentally moduloarithmetic properties.

    it's not just the 3 colors. There are also 3 anti colors in QCD, and we use the complementary colors on the color wheel for those, or not ("anti-blue" is as good as "yellow"). The real kicker is that physical states we see are always colorless, and as such are made from either 3 colored quarks, or 3 anti-colored antiquarks, or 1 colored quark and 1 anti-colored anti quark....which is exactly how we interpret colors to make neutral shades/white....however, for QCD it stems from the representation theory of the Lie group, SU(3). It's a convenient coincidence.

    So when you have two magnets in contact, and there is a force between them, are there photons required to establish the force? There is no energy transmission between the magnets in the static condition. So the electromagnetic force does not need photons for the static case. It only needs photons for the accelerating case. If there are no photons required for a static example, does that imply that objects other than photons can interact with electromagnetic fields?

    great videos!! ''...photons, which are completely oblivious to each others existance...'' wait so why do EM waves cancel out eachother if they are out of phase?

    A classical EM wave is not a photon, but billions of photons. Photons can also turn into an electron and a positron. By doing this it is basically possible for two photons to scatter each other.
