New Predictions for Meson Measurements Unveiled by Scientists

Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory have used supercomputers to predict the distribution of electric charges in mesons, particles made of a quark and an antiquark. These predictions, validated through a method called factorization, align with low-energy measurements and will guide future high-energy experiments at the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The research aims to deepen understanding of how quarks and gluons generate the mass and structure of hadrons, which are fundamental to visible matter.

Unveiling the Mysteries of Proton's Inner Structure and Gluonic Gravitational Form Factors.

Scientists have determined the gluonic gravitational form factors of the proton, which describe the distribution of the proton's mass and energy. The research was conducted using data from an electron-proton scattering experiment and analyzed using quantum chromodynamics and lattice QCD. The results provide insight into the structure of the proton and could aid in the development of an electron-ion collider, a proposed particle accelerator that could further advance our understanding of the fundamental building blocks of matter.
