| 11:00 - 12:00 Journal Club: Experiment & Phenomenology – Hybrid Format The pressure distribution inside the proton School PARTICLES AND ACCELERATORS Abstract: The proton, one of the components of atomic nuclei, is composed of fundamental particles called quarks and gluons. Gluons are the carriers of the force that binds quarks together, and free quarks are never found in isolation—that is, they are confined within the composite particles in which they reside. The origin of quark confinement is one of the most important questions in modern particle and nuclear physics because confinement is at the core of what makes the proton a stable particle and thus provides stability to the Universe. The internal quark structure of the proton is revealed by deeply virtual Compton scatte ... |
