For the first time, a detailed map of the internal forces of the proton has been created

An international team of scientists has created a detailed map of the forces inside a proton for the first time, showing how quarks – the smallest constituents of matter – react when they interact with high-energy photons. “We used a powerful computational technique known as lattice quantum chromodynamics to map the forces inside the proton,” said Associate Professor Ross Young, who is the department’s deputy head of academic affairs...
