CP violation in strong nuclear force
The Strong CP Problem is the contradiction between the experimental evidence and the existence of a theta Lagrangian term that violates charge-parity symmetry. This theta Lagrangian term exists due to non-trivial Quantum Chromodynamics vacuum structures. In this paper, we examine the non-trivial Qua...

The Strong CP Problem is the contradiction between the experimental evidence and the existence of a theta Lagrangian term that violates charge-parity symmetry. This theta Lagrangian term exists due to non-trivial Quantum Chromodynamics vacuum structures. In this paper, we examine the non-trivial Quantum Chromodynamics vacuum structure as well as the historical roots of its discovery, before examining solutions that may solve the Strong CP Problem, with detail on the global U(1) Peccei-Quinn symmetry solution suggested by Reccei, R. D., & Quinn, H. R in 1977, and comment on the resulting particle, the axion, that stems from this solution |
