Proton Structure

Collisions of heavy ions generate an immensely strong electromagnetic field. Scientists investigate traces of this powerful electromagnetic field in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a state where quarks and gluons are liberated from the colliding protons and neutrons.

‘Spooky Action’ at a Very Short Distance: Scientists Map Out Quantum Entanglement in Protons

Understanding of the proton has changed from the 1980s view of the proton as made of three valence quarks (left) to the modern view that it is made of valence quarks, sea quarks, and gluons rotating in different directions around its spin axis (right).
