Hello There I may have some mistakes so correct me when I wrote something wrong.My question is:what's the yukawa's interaction and why it is not part of standard model?
Right.AleksanderPhy said:Thank you very much(;But what is α
PS! Am I correct that r is radius?
Yukawa interaction is a type of fundamental force that is responsible for the attractive force between protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus. It is also known as the strong nuclear force and is one of the four fundamental forces of nature.
Unlike the other fundamental forces, such as electromagnetism and gravity, Yukawa interaction only acts over very short distances, on the order of 10^-15 meters. It is also the strongest of the fundamental forces, but its effects are only felt at the atomic and subatomic level.
The Standard Model is a theory that describes the fundamental particles and forces of nature, but it does not include the strong nuclear force. This is because the Standard Model is based on quantum field theory, which works well for describing the other fundamental forces but breaks down when trying to incorporate the strong nuclear force.
Yukawa interaction was proposed by Japanese physicist Hideki Yukawa in 1935 as a way to explain the strong force between protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus. It was later confirmed through experiments in the 1950s and 1960s.
Yukawa interaction plays a crucial role in the stability of atomic nuclei, as it balances the repulsive electromagnetic force between protons. It is also important in the study of particle physics, as it helps us understand the behavior of subatomic particles. Additionally, the strong nuclear force is being studied for potential applications in nuclear energy and medicine.
