Interaction

Meanings and phrases

interaction

n.

1. a mutual or reciprocal action; interacting
2. (physics) the transfer of energy between elementary particles or between an elementary particle and a field or between fields; mediated by gauge bosons; fundamental interaction

electromagnetic interaction

n.

1. an interaction between charged elementary particles that is intermediate in strength between the strong and weak interactions; mediated by photons

fundamental interaction

n.

1. (physics) the transfer of energy between elementary particles or between an elementary particle and a field or between fields; mediated by gauge bosons; interaction

gravitational interaction

n.

1. a weak interaction between particles that results from their mass; mediated by gravitons

strong interaction

n.

1. (physics) the interaction that binds protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of atoms; mediated by gluons; strong force; color force

E.g.

• The (aptly named) strong interaction is the "strongest" of the four fundamental forces.

• Leptons differ from the other basic constituent of matter, the quarks, by their lack of strong interaction.

weak interaction

n.

1. (physics) an interaction between elementary particles involving neutrinos or antineutrinos that is responsible for certain kinds of radioactive decay; mediated by intermediate vector bosons; weak force

E.g.
