Anyone know some good nuclear structure/QCD physicists who would be open to more conceptual questions (also great if they’re on twitter)?

Lmao it’s some seriously deep stuff about the proliferation of models of nuclear structure and their incompatibility with one another, but as far as I can tell no physicists have tackled this in detail

i feel like ryan would know a bit about it

Yo! I don’t know any physics as such but is it related to Einstein? Part of the problem is the lens of who you are. How does a nuclear structure proliferate? Are you meaning at a micro or a macro scale? Here I can only talk in a language imported from aesthetics. Like Deleuze.

Not related to Einstein, though ‘proliferation’ just picks out the existence of some ~30 or so models (none of which are directly connected to the fundamental degrees of freedom and tractable for all nuclides) that make incompatible claims wrt. the nature of nuclear structure

What are nucleons made up of? Do you want to look further into it? I can open it up and show you if you like.

the problem is we don't know what their made of because of the non-perturbative nature of QCD at those scales.. we tell the children quarks and gluons, but that terminology doesn't make sense below ~1GeV

Confinement?
