Dr. Amir Fariborz, a Professor of Physics at SUNY Polytechnic Institute, has co-authored significant research that refines the understanding of the strong nuclear force through a newly developed theoretical framework. This project addresses our fundamental lack of understanding of the strong nuclear force. It has just now come out in the peer-reviewed journal Physical Review D.
Dr. Fariborz and his associates collaborated on a major international study, which introduced an innovative theoretical framework. This architecture not only corresponds well with ongoing exploratory findings, but fits naturally to further visionary scientific breakthroughs. This flexibility and adaptability is very important for new developments at the cutting edge of particle physics, as new experimental data becomes available.

Needless to say, Dr. Fariborz’s current research builds upon the work he and his team originally proposed back in 2016. In this way, they built a theoretical link between chiral Lagrangians and Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) Gaussian sum rules. The latter connection is of tremendous importance in low-energy hadronic physics. This subfield of experimental particle physics investigates the interactions and behavior of hadrons, a class of particles that includes protons, neutrons, and mesons.
The strong nuclear force is one of four fundamental forces of nature. It is essential in our understanding of how atomic nuclei hold together. Its complexities have from the outset presented formidable obstacles for physicists attempting to construct a unified, fundamental framework to explain its behavior. Dr. Fariborz and his collaborators have been trying to understand the underlying quark structure of hadrons. They hope to deliver a rich understanding of the force and factors that control these minuscule particles.
The discovery is a remarkable breakthrough in theoretical physics and highlights the need to combine long-standing theories with experimental data. Her extensive research and analysis contribute tremendously to existing literature and inform follow-up investigations in the field.
