Simulations Simplify Mystery of Elusive Quantum Particles

The two-dimensional spatial distribution of mass due to gluons in the nucleon (left) and the pion (right), simulated at seven valence pion masses with lattice quantum chromodynamics.

Mass Distribution Inside Subatomic Particles Mapped for First Time

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).
