Page 544 - Tennessee 37831, managed by Martin Marietta Energy Systems, Inc., for the US DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY under Contract DE-AC05-84OR21400.
Page 480 - Until the last few years, the fundamental understanding of nuclear properties has been based on the idea of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons that interact through a combination of weak, strong, and electromagnetic forces It became clear that achieving a real knowledge of many nuclear properties depends on understanding nuclear structure based on quarks, and particles called gluons that bind the quarks together. Quarks and gluons are the building blocks of protons and neutrons (nucleons)....
