A quantum proton is a positively charged baryon with valence-quark content . It is the nucleus of ordinary hydrogen and, together with neutrons, forms atomic nuclei. Although often treated as a particle, the proton has rich internal structure from quarks, gluons, and sea partons.[1][2][3]
Structure
Composite hadrons are described by quantum chromodynamics. Their observable properties arise from valence constituents, gluon fields, sea quark-antiquark pairs, orbital motion, and confinement.[4]
Experimental role
Hadrons are reconstructed through masses, lifetimes, decay channels, scattering patterns, and production rates. Their spectra and decays provide detailed tests of strong-interaction dynamics.[5]
