The Nuclear Force | SpringerLink

Abstract

The nuclear force is responsible for holding the nucleus together. This is an interaction between colourless nucleons and its range is of the same order of magnitude as the nucleon diameter. The physics of the interaction can be understood in terms of a potential. Information about this potential is derived from nucleon-nucleon scattering at low energies and from the properties of the deuteron, which is the simplest of all atomic nuclei. Attempts to describe the nature of the nuclear force in quark models and meson-exchange models are shortly presented.

Unfortunately, nuclear physics has not profited as much from

analogy as has atomic physics. The reason seems to be that the

nucleus is the domain of new and unfamiliar forces, for which

men have not yet developed an intuitive feeling.
