WordDefinition
color chargenoun(American spelling, nuclear physics, particle physics) In the Standard Model of particle physics, a property possessed by quarks, antiquarks, and gluons that determine rules for how these particles may interact. There are three pairs of colors and anticolors: red, green, blue, and their corresponding anti-colors (e.g. anti-red).
colornoun(uncountable) The spectral composition of visible light.
color forcenoun(physics) Alternative spelling of colour force. [(nuclear physics) A fundamental force that is associated with the strong nuclear force, created by the associated bosons known as gluons, between quarks and other subatomic particles, by way of the colour charge]
anticolournoun(physics) The property of antiquarks equivalent to that of colour in quarks.
bluenoun(countable and uncountable) The colour of the clear sky or the deep sea; the colour midway between green and violet in the visible spectrum and one of the primary additive colours.
greennounThe color of grass and leaves; a primary additive color midway between yellow and blue which is evoked by light between roughly 495–570 nm.
colour forcenoun(nuclear physics) A fundamental force that is associated with the strong nuclear force, created by the associated bosons known as gluons, between quarks and other subatomic particles, by way of the colour charge
chargenounThe amount of money levied for a service.
electric chargenoun(physics) The quantity of unbalanced positive or negative ions in or on an object; measured in coulombs.
chromodynamicsnoun(physics) The study of the relationship between those quarks that possess the quantum property of color, and exchange gluons; more fully quantum chromodynamics.
quantum chromodynamicsnoun(quantum mechanics) A quantum field theory in particle physics which describes the strong interaction of quarks and gluons employing the concept of color charge.
hypercolournounAlternative form of hypercolor. [(physics) A hypothetical attractive force that binds prequarks together by the exchange of hypergluons, analogous to the exchange of gluons by the color force, which binds quarks together.]
chromomagnetismnoun(physics, quantum chromodynamics) An interaction between quarks of different colour that has some similarities to magnetism
hypercolornoun(attributive) A line of clothing, mainly T-shirts and shorts, that change color when exposed to heat.
technicolornounA colour process for motion pictures, developed and used in the twentieth century and known for its hyperrealistic, saturated levels of colour.
strong forcenoun(nuclear physics) The color force, a fundamental force that is associated with the strong bonds, created by the associated bosons known as gluons, between quarks and other subatomic particles.
coloronnoun(physics) A massive gauge boson that is a color-octet resonance
nuclear chargenoun(nuclear physics) The electric charge of a nucleus of an atom, equal to the number of protons in the nucleus times the elementary charge.
charged particlenoun(electromagnetism, particle physics) Any particle, especially a subatomic particle, that carries an electric charge.
color-octetnoun(physics) The eight color components of the gluon.
