WHAT DOES GLUON MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Gluon

Gluons /ˈɡluːɒnz/ are elementary particles that act as the exchange particles for the strong force between quarks, analogous to the exchange of photons in the electromagnetic force between two charged particles. In technical terms, gluons are vector gauge bosons that mediate strong interactions of quarks in quantum chromodynamics. Gluons themselves carry the color charge of the strong interaction. This is unlike the photon, which mediates the electromagnetic interaction but lacks an electric charge. Gluons therefore participate in the strong interaction in addition to mediating it, making QCD significantly harder to analyze than QED.

Definition of gluon in the English dictionary

The definition of gluon in the dictionary is a hypothetical particle believed to be exchanged between quarks in order to bind them together to form particles.
