Strong nuclear interaction. Quarks are fundamental particles that carry fractional electric charge and are strongly interacting. They also have a quantum number called "colour". ... an interaction between quarks, mediated by particles called gluons, that serve as carriers of "colour". 1, record 1, English, - strong%20nuclear%20interaction

It is a short range force operating at the femtometer range. Leptons do not experience the strong interaction, but gluons interact among themselves. As [he] explained, strong interactions are responsible for holding the nucleus together through a reaction that manifests itself as an exchange of mesons between neutrons and protons. 1, record 1, English, - strong%20nuclear%20interaction

À l'échelle nucléaire et dans le domaine d’énergie qui intéresse la physique des réacteurs nucléaires, trois des quatre interactions sont concernées : interaction électromagnétique(émission de photons), nucléaire faible(radioactivité), nucléaire forte. C'est cette dernière interaction qui rend compte de la cohésion du noyau [...] les nucléons(neutron, proton) seraient construits à partir des particules plus élémentaires : les quarks. Le gluon serait le «véhicule» de l'interaction forte comme le photon pour l'interaction électromagnétique. À l'heure actuelle, l'interaction forte est interprétée dans le cadre d’une théorie appelée la chromodynamique quantique. 1, record 1, French, - interaction%20nucl%C3%A9aire%20forte

Rhyolite magma is rich in silicon, potassium and sodium and erupts at temperatures between 700°C and 850°C as an extremely viscous (sticky) magma. Rhyolite magma containing lots of gas bubbles cools to form pumice. Because it is low in iron, rhyolite is normally light-coloured - it may vary from white to pink or brown. 4, record 2, English, - rhyolite%20magma

A range of concentration for CO2 between 390 and 580 ppmv is currently projected for 2050. Disagreement exists on a precise upper bound for future CO2 emissions. The present assessment places the upper bound at about 20 Gt C/yr in the year 2050, about a four-fold increase from the present emission (5 Gt C/yr). 1, record 3, English, - present%20emission

Historiquement, les pays industrialisés de l’OCDE sont responsables de quatre cinquièmes des émissions cumulées de CO2. Mais ils ne contribuent qu’à la moitié des émissions actuelles (dont 25 % pour les États-Unis), l’Union soviétique et ses anciens satellites produisant 25 % des émissions et les pays en développement le reste. 1, record 3, French, - %C3%A9mission%20actuelle

The recoverable fossil fuel reserves are so large (c. 4000 Gt) that they present no constraint to the future buildup of atmospheric CO2 concentration. Future emissions of CO2 will depend on how global energy demand changes, about 80% of which is met by fossil fuel burning, and the role fossil fuels play in the future energy supply. These are the primary uncertainties in future emissions of CO2. 2, record 4, English, - future%20emission
