Spiritual Practitioners must understand the Cosmic systems.

Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter, made up of smaller particles known as subatomic particles. These include protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons, which make up the nucleus of the atom, are themselves made of even smaller particles called quarks, and these quarks are held together by particles known as gluons.

Subatomic Particles:
โซ๏ธProtons: Positively charged particles found in the nucleus. They are made up of two โupโ quarks and one โdownโ quark.
โซ๏ธNeutrons: Neutral particles also found in the nucleus. They consist of two โdownโ quarks and one โupโ quark.
โซ๏ธElectrons: Negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus. They are considered elementary particles, meaning they are not made up of smaller particles.
โซ๏ธQuarks:
Quarks are the fundamental constituents of protons and neutrons. There are six types (or flavors) of quarks: up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom. Quarks have fractional electric charges, either positive or negative.
Connection Between Quarks:
Quarks are held together by gluons, which act as the carriers of the strong nuclear force. The strong force is the most powerful of the four fundamental forces in physics (strong nuclear force, weak nuclear force, electromagnetic force, and gravity) and is responsible for binding quarks together to form protons and neutrons.
๐
Gluons:
Gluons are the particles that mediate the strong nuclear force between quarks. They are massless and have no electric charge, but they carry something called color charge.
Invisible Power of Gluons:-
The โinvisible powerโ of gluons refers to their role in keeping quarks bound together inside protons and neutrons. Unlike electromagnetic forces, which weaken over distance, the strong force becomes stronger as quarks move apart. This is why quarks are always confined within protons and neutrons and can never be isolated individually, a phenomenon called quark confinement.
๐
Color Charge and Gluon Exchange:
Quarks carry a property called color charge, which is analogous to electric charge but is part of the strong interaction. The colors used to describe quarks are red, green, and blue, but these are just labels and do not refer to actual colors. Gluons exchange color between quarks, ensuring that the combination of quarks always results in a color-neutral (white) particle, such as a proton or neutron.
The gluon interaction is incredibly dynamic, with gluons themselves carrying color charge. This results in a complex exchange between quarks, known as gluon exchange, which constantly shifts the color charges of the quarks involved.
๐
Movement and Interactions:
โซ๏ธInside protons and neutrons, quarks move rapidly, exchanging gluons continuously. This interaction is so strong that quarks are confined tightly within the nucleus.
โซ๏ธThe movements of quarks and gluons are described by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), which is the theory of the strong nuclear force. QCD explains how gluons can interact with themselves, as they also carry color charge, which makes the study of gluons more complex than other force carriers like photons in electromagnetism.
๐
In essence, quarks are bound together by the powerful gluons through the exchange of color charge, creating a strong and stable structure in the form of protons and neutrons. This invisible, but mighty, power of gluons ensures the stability of the atomic nucleus and, by extension, the matter that makes up the universe.
