    Introduction Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) is an extreme state of matter believed to have existed microseconds after the Big Bang. It’s a hot, dense phase of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) where quarks and gluons—fundamental particles of the strong interaction—roam free rather than being confined within hadrons (like protons and neutrons). The study of QGP provides crucial insights…

    Introduction Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is a theory in theoretical physics t hat describes the interactions of quarks and gluons, the fundamental particles that make up protons, neutrons, and other particles. The term “chromodynamics” comes from the Greek word “chroma,” meaning color, as quarks carry a type of charge known as “color charge.” Fundamental Concepts and…

    Introduction Gluons are elementary particles that mediate the strong interaction, one of the four fundamental forces of nature. They are the force carriers of the strong nuclear force, much like photons are for the electromagnetic force. Properties of Gluons Gluons are bosons, particles with integer spin, and they possess a property known as color charge.…

    Introduction The strong nuclear force, also known as the strong interaction or the strong force, is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. It is the force responsible for binding protons and neutrons together in atomic nuclei. The strong force is approximately 100 times stronger than the electromagnetic force, a million times stronger than…
