ionitons
Ionitons are hypothetical elementary particles that are proposed to mediate the strong nuclear force between quarks. They are not currently part of the Standard Model of particle physics, which describes the known fundamental particles and forces. The concept of ionitons emerged from theoretical attempts to understand the behavior of quarks within protons and neutrons, as well as the forces that bind them together.
The theoretical framework for ionitons suggests they are massless bosons, similar in nature to photons which
The existence of ionitons, if proven, would significantly advance our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the
