A glueball is thought to be made up entirely of gluons, which are the'sticky'particles that keep nuclear particles together.
and the force particle of the strong nuclear force is said the gluon Anton Rebhan (TU Wien).
Gluons can be seen as more complicated versions of the photon. The massless photons are responsible for the forces of electromagnetism,
while eight different kinds of gluons play a similar role for the strong nuclear force. However, there is one important difference:
gluons themselves are subject to their own force. This is why there are no bound states of photons,
but a particle that consists only of bound gluons, of pure nuclear force, is theoretically possible.
because gluon interactions do not usually differentiate between heavier and lighter quarks. But the latest study found that it is possible for glueballs to decay predominantly into strange quarks.
and quarks are held together by even smaller particles called gluons. Also known as'sticky particles',massless gluons are described as a complicated version of the photon,
because just like how photons are responsible for exerting the force of electromagnetism, gluons are in charge of exerting a strong nuclear force."
"In particle physics, every force is mediated by a special kind of force particle, and the force particle of the strong nuclear force is the gluon,
"explains one of the researchers, Anton Rebhan from the Vienna University of Technology. But there is one major difference between the two:
gluons are. This important fact means that while photons can exist in what known as a bound state,
gluons can be bound together via their own nuclear force to form glueballs.""The existence of glueball particles brings the idea that,
Gluons might be massless on their own, but their interactions with each other give glueballs a mass, which, theoretically, allows scientists to detect them,
because some scientists assumed that gluon interactions did not usually differentiate between heavier and lighter quarks-something that Rebhan
