Visualisation of quark structure of proton
Quark structure of the proton. Computer visualisation of the structure of the proton, one of the building blocks of atomic nuclei. The three objects seen here are quarks, held together by the strong nuclear force. This force is mediated by the exchange of virtual gluons which form a quantum cloud around the quarks. The colours here represent the quark " flavour" ; the proton is made of two " up" quarks (blue) and one " down" quark (red). These quarks have electric charges of +2/3 and -1/3 respectively, so the proton has a net electric charge of +1

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing visualisation of the quark structure of a proton, one of the fundamental building blocks that make up atomic nuclei. The image unveils three distinct objects known as quarks, intricately held together by the powerful force known as the strong nuclear force. This force is facilitated through the exchange of virtual gluons, which form a fascinating quantum cloud enveloping the quarks. The vibrant colors displayed in this artwork represent different "flavors" or types of quarks within the proton's composition. Specifically, two "up" quarks are depicted in striking blue hues while one "down" quark stands out in vivid red tones. These unique particles possess electric charges of +2/3 and -1/3 respectively, resulting in an overall net electric charge for the proton amounting to +1. Through this visually stunning representation, we gain insight into the intricate world of particle physics and atomic structure. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit to unravel nature's mysteries at its most fundamental level. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this awe-inspiring snapshot that invites us to contemplate our understanding of subatomic particles and their profound impact on shaping our universe.
