Neutron stars and colour force

In summary: Yes, there is a mathematical demonstration example of this dimensionless operator \nabla in the article "Nabla Nexus" on the website "Super. Colorado.edu" under the section "General Relativity gravitational pressure: P_e = \frac{c^2}{3} \left( \frac{\nabla^2 \phi}{4 \pi G} - \rho \right)".

If neutrons stay intact and get closer together than 10^-15 metres in a neutron star, would the exchange of mesons between neutrons stop and be replaced by the exchange of gluons, and would the gluons cause an attractive or repulsive force between neutrons? A repulsive force could
stop the collapse of the neutron star in place of neutron degeneracy pressure.

Einstein field equation gravitational potential:
[tex]\nabla^2 \phi = 4 \pi G \left( \rho + \frac{3P}{c^2} \right)[/tex]

General Relativity gravitational pressure:
[tex]P_e = \frac{c^2}{3} \left( \frac{\nabla^2 \phi}{4 \pi G} - \rho \right)[/tex]

Classical Yukawa Pressure:
[tex]P_y = f^2 \frac{e^{- \frac{r_1}{r_0}}}{4 \pi r_s^2 r_1^2}[/tex]

Einstein-Yukawa criterion:
[tex]P_e = P_y[/tex]

[tex]\frac{c^2}{3} \left( \frac{\nabla^2 \phi}{4 \pi G} - \rho \right) = f^2 \frac{e^{- \frac{r_1}{r_0}}}{4 \pi r_s^2 r_1^2}[/tex]

Is this criterion conceptually correct?

Classical Schwarzschild-Yukawa nuclear interaction strength Limit:
[tex]f_1 = \frac{r_1c^2}{2} \sqrt{\frac{e^{\frac{r_1}{r_0}}}{G}}[/tex]
[tex]r_1 < r_0[/tex]

Based upon the Orion1 equations, what are the Standard International (SI) units for [tex]f_1[/tex] ?

[tex]\frac{c^2}{3} \left( \frac{\nabla^2 \phi}{4 \pi G} - \rho \right) = \frac{c^4}{16 \pi G r_s^2}[/tex]

[tex]\left( \frac{\nabla^2 \phi}{4 \pi G} - \rho \right) = \frac{3 c^2}{16 \pi G r_s^2}[/tex]

Classical Einstein-Schwarzschild critical density:
[tex]\rho_c = \left( \frac{\nabla^2 \phi}{4 \pi G} - \frac{3 c^2}{16 \pi G r_s^2} \right) = \frac{}{4 \pi G} \left( \nabla^2 \phi - \frac{3 c^2}{4 r_s^2} \right)[/tex]

[tex]\rho_c = \frac{}{4 \pi G} \left( \nabla^2 \phi - \frac{3 c^2}{4 r_s^2} \right)[/tex]

Based upon the Orion1 equations, what are the Standard International (SI) units for [tex]\nabla[/tex] and [tex]\phi[/tex]?

I don't understand those equations, but I thought del/nabla was a differential operator and didn't have units. Also, SI = Système International, not Standard International.

Nabla Nexus...


SI = Système International (International System)

I thought del/nabla was a differential operator and didn't have units.

Is this correct? Can anyone present a mathematical demonstration example of this dimensionless operator [tex]\nabla[/tex]?
 

1. What is a neutron star?

A neutron star is a type of celestial object that is formed when a massive star runs out of fuel and collapses under its own gravity. It is incredibly dense, with a mass of about 1.4 times that of our Sun packed into a sphere with a diameter of only about 12 miles. These stars are composed almost entirely of neutrons, which are subatomic particles found in the nuclei of atoms.

2. How are neutron stars formed?

Neutron stars are formed when a massive star, typically at least 8 times the mass of our Sun, reaches the end of its life cycle and runs out of fuel to burn. The outer layers of the star collapse onto the core, creating an intense gravitational pull that causes the protons and electrons in the core to fuse together, forming neutrons. This collapse also releases an enormous amount of energy, resulting in a supernova explosion.

3. What is the color force?

The color force is one of the four fundamental forces in the universe, along with gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak nuclear force. It is responsible for binding together the quarks, which are subatomic particles that make up protons and neutrons. The color force gets its name from the fact that it comes in three different "colors" or types, and these colors are what determine the interactions between quarks.

4. How does the color force affect neutron stars?

The intense gravitational pull of neutron stars causes the neutrons in their cores to be packed together so tightly that they can no longer move freely. This results in a state of matter known as a neutron degenerate gas, where the neutrons are constantly interacting with each other through the color force. This interaction creates a stable and rigid structure that allows neutron stars to maintain their shape and resist the force of gravity.

5. Can we observe the color force?

No, we cannot directly observe the color force as it only acts on subatomic particles. However, we can indirectly study its effects through experiments and observations of subatomic particles and their interactions. Scientists also use mathematical models and theories, such as quantum chromodynamics, to understand and predict the behavior of the color force.
