Saturday Physics Lecture, "The Strongest Glue in the Universe"

Presented by: Professor Ed Kinney Date: Saturday, October 4, 2025 Abstract: The tiny particles that comprise almost all the mass in our bodies as well as the stars and planets are held together by a force so strong that it is nearly impossible to break away from it. It’s so strong that if you try to break the glue bond, you’ll create anti-matter particles! Many people are surprised to learn that our mass is not just the sum of the mass of the particles we’re made up of but also the energy held in these glue forces. It is challenging to study these glue forces in the laboratory and observe their effects on the tiny particles known as quarks that the glue forces act on. In this talk we’ll learn about the basics of the glue force and how it holds matter and anti-matter together insides us and how physicists attempt to understand and study it.
