Gluons are bosons which mediate the force binding quarks to one another within a hadron (a particle made of quarks, such as a proton or neutron). No one person can take credit for first developing this theory, as quantum mechanics and the Standard Model are still developing. As these paradigms continued to develop in the 1960s and 1970s, the gluon hypothesis was found to explain a lot of observations that were easily explained with gluons but difficult to explain in other ways.

What are gluons made of?
point particles that are bosons, they have no internal structure.
What are the subatomic particles found in the nucleus of the atom are?
The three subatomic particles found in an atom are the Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons. But the subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom are the Protons, and Neutrons. The Electrons surround the nucleus and take up most of the volume.
Where are the subatomic particles in protons?
A proton contain 2 up quarks and 1 down quark; quarks are bonded by gluons.
Which subatomic particles are located in the nucleus of a carbon atom?
Atomic nucleus contain neutrons and protons; and both contain quarks and gluons.
What is a baryon?
A baryon is a variety of heavy subatomic particle created by the binding of quarks by gluons.
Who discover gluons?
Gluon was found at the German Electron Synchrotron in 1979.
What can be found inside of the nucleus?
Protons and neutrons; these particles are supposed to contain quarks and gluons.
What is the subatomic particles are found in the nucleus of the atom?
These particles are neutrons and protons; they are formed from quarks and gluons.
What are the particles found in the nucleus aside from protons and neutrons?
No other particles; but protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
What is the role of gluons?
Gluons bind together the quarks that make up protons and neutrons.
Where are sub-atomic particles found in the atom?
These particles are: protons, neutrons, electrons; neutrons and protons are composed from quarks and gluons.
What sub-atomic particles are found in the nucleus?
Protons and neutrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
How are gluons involved in within the atom?
Strong nuclear forces act through gluons in the nucleus
How are gluons involved in forces within atoms?
Strong nuclear forces act through gluons in the nucleus
What is the plural of gluon?
Gluons
What hold things together?
Gluons.
What is a gluon in chemistry?
In chemistry gluons play no part. Gluons are elementary particles that "glue" other fundamental particles together within the nucleus.
