The Electromagnetic Considerations of the Nuclear Force: Part III An Analysis of the Electromagnetic Contributions to Nuclear Behavior

September 2022

This theory discusses the role of the electromagnetic force inside the atomic nucleus. Previous nuclear theories have relegated the electromagnetic force as being a relatively minor component, considering only the Coulomb force of the protons. These previous models usually make the incorrect and outdated assumptions of a homogeneously-charged proton and a homogeneously-neutral neutron.

Discrepancies with the Recent Models of Nucleons

September 2022

Recent theoretical calculations about the mass of the partons within protons have raised questions, specifically regarding what comprises the bulk of the mass of the nucleons. As a result of these recent theoretical calculations and the questions they precipitate, there are many new models of the nucleons that claim to have solved the question of the missing nucleon mass. This paper is an examination these recent nucleon models, exploring the accuracy of the science, the mathematics, and the concepts described therein.

A Simple Calculation of the Inter-Nucleon Up-to-Down Quark Bond and its Implications for Nuclear Binding

December 2020

This paper describes an interesting and potentially significant phenomenon regarding the properties of up and down quarks within the nucleus, specifically how the possible internucleon bonding of these quarks may affect the bonding energy of the nuclear force. A very simple calculation is used, which involves a bond between two internucleon up and down quarks.

An Examination of the Updated Empirical Data in Support of the Shell Model

August 2020

This paper is a re-examination of the experimental data, as is currently known in 2020, in support of the shell model and its concepts. The shell model of the nuclear force was proposed in 1955, and it has since been accepted as the fundamental model of the nuclear force. The shell model was based on the experimentally-known data at that time, supporting the concept of nuclear shells.
