Gluon gauge fieldGluon self-interaction

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

The gluon field self-interacts because the color gauge group is non-Abelian.

How to interpret this relation type

The source field, particle, charge, current, or interaction couples to, acts on, binds, forms, or stabilizes the target in the stated regime. The edge label and detail must identify the exact coupling, interaction, or binding claim and its qualifications.

Gluon self-interactionQuantum chromodynamics

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

Three- and four-gluon vertices are QCD interaction components.

How to interpret this relation type

The source supplies a substantive formal ingredient, dynamical sector, law, field content, or mechanism of the target theoretical framework.
