Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)
- QCD is the theory that describes the strong interactions between the quarks and gluons within the atomic nucleus. This aptly named strong force is what holds the protons and neutrons (that would otherwise repel) together. The strong force is the stronges of the four fundamental force of nature (which includes gravity, electromagnetic forces, and weak nuclear interaction).
- The strong force behind QCD is also responsible for nuclear fusion (i.e. when two elements combine to form a larger particle). Fusion is regarded by scientists as perhaps the most ideal source of energy, as the process have the potential to produce more energy than any other known sources, but without the radioactive and/or explosive hazards associated with nuclear (fission) energy. Fusion is also how stars (including our Sun) produce their energy. However, the extreme conditions required to generate fusion makes it much more difficult to attain and harness on a large and long-term scale.
"Love is the strongest force in the universe."
Can this statement be proven true?
If I were to begin a search
And write down a hypothesis
What parameters should I observe?
Can love be seen under a microscope?
Can its depths be plumbed by a rope?
Can its mass be balanced on a scale,
Or its weight detected by a spring?
If only I can find these numbers,
Will I finally understand…?
Why so many courtship end in disaster
Why friendship can fall apart
If love is so powerful
Then why does it seem so frail?
So much of the cosmos is cold and empty space
Like the void within our souls
That love can’t seem to fill
Still, my heart remains restless
Unwilling to make the conclusion
That love is but vain platitudes
That the universe is all there is…
So much of the cosmos is but cold and empty space
But gossamer threads hold the planets in their place
The radiant orbs move in harmony
To weave cosmic melodies
And though the song of the celestial spheres
Are oft too far to hear
A kindred anthem streams
Oft too close to see
So I listen to the quantum hymn
To study this elementary romance
The force so strong it could subdue
The natural repulsions within the heart of matter
And the bonds forged by the orbital motions
Which construct our terrestrial frames
I know now that even in my utmost lonesome
Atomic serenades reverberate deep within
Forever reaching out for a kin
Vast, cosmic energies is unleashed
When elements finally unite
And when I contemplate these forces sublime
They almost seem divine
"Love is the strongest force in the universe."
I think I am beginning to see
How that statement could be true
Love is the seam that binds all kinds of matter
And that love is three in one
