Question

For modeling this force, Kenneth Wilson developed a non-perturbative (“pur-TUR-buh-tiv”) “lattice” method. This interaction is overcome at the Hagedorn temperature. (15[1])The Yukawa interaction (15[2])models the “residual” form (10[1])of this force. The symmetries (-5[1])of this force become apparent when (15[1])plotting charge against strangeness to create the eightfold way diagram. (-5[1])This force’s property (15[1])of asymptotic (15[2])freedom is reproduced by an (10[1]-5[1])(*) SU(3) gauge theory called quantum chromodynamics. Hadrons are (10[2])bound together by this force, (10[1])which is (10[1])mediated by gluons (10[2])and (10[1])holds protons and neutrons together in (10[1])the atomic nucleus. (10[1])For 10 points, name this most powerful fundamental force. ■END■ (10[1])
