First coherent picture of an atomic nucleus made of quarks and gluons

The atomic nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons, particles that exist through the interaction of quarks bonded by gluons. It would seem, therefore, that it should not be difficult to reproduce all the properties of atomic nuclei hitherto observed in nuclear experiments using only quarks and gluons. However, it is only now that physicists, including those from the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Kraków, have succeeded in doing this.

apparently the secret was revealed using lepton deep-inelastic scattering, which I thought lived in colonies

No, it’s the special formulation from The Ponds Institute.

frankly amazing

Thoroughly amazing.

…for the 18 atomic nuclei studied, parton distribution functions in atomic nuclei..

PARTON! No no…… lolz

They look alarmingly similar to those In chemistry. The ball-and-stick model is a molecular model of a chemical substance which displays both the three-dimensional position of the atoms and the bonds between them.
