    Nucleus Structure
AI Thread Summary
Protons and neutrons in the nucleus are arranged in a complex structure influenced by the strong nuclear force, which binds them together. The movement of these particles is governed by quantum mechanics, leading to a dynamic equilibrium within the nucleus. Understanding concepts like color charge and quark confinement is essential for grasping the behavior of nucleons. Resources such as "The Particle Adventure" provide valuable insights into these topics. Exploring these foundational principles can enhance comprehension of nuclear structure and interactions.

dear sir,
I am curious to know the way protons and neutron are arranged in the nucleus and movement of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.please guide me.

I don't know about your level of knowledge, but you could start with having a look at:

The Particle Adventure - What about the nucleus?

See also the sections below that section, i.e. "Strong", "Color charge", "Quark confinement" etc.
 
Thread 'Is there a white hole inside every black hole?'

Thread 'Is there a white hole inside every black hole?'

This is what I am thinking. How much feasible is it? There is a white hole inside every black hole The white hole spits mass/energy out continuously The mass/energy that is spit out of a white hole drops back into it eventually. This is because of extreme space time curvature around the white hole Ironically this extreme space time curvature of the space around a white hole is caused by the huge mass/energy packed in the white hole Because of continuously spitting mass/energy which keeps...

Thread 'Is Gravity an entropic property like Surface Tension'

Why do two separately floating objects in a liquid "attract" each other ?? What if gravity is an emergent property like surface tension ? What if they both are essentially trying to *minimize disorder at the interfaces — where non-aligned polarized particles are forced to mix with each other* What if gravity is an emergent property that is trying to optimize the entropy emerging out of spin aligned quantum bits
