theories that cause interactions between particles to become asymptotically weaker as the energy scale increases and the corresponding length scale decreases. Asymptotic freedom is a feature of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the quantum field theory of the strong interaction between quarks and gluons, the fundamental constituents of nuclear matter. Quarks interact weakly at high energies, allowing perturbative calculations. At low points, the interaction becomes strong, leading to quarks and gluons’ confinement within composite hadrons. QCD has verified the quantum field theory.
The odderon is a combination of subatomic particles rather than a new fundamental particle – but it does act like the latter in some respects and the way it fits into the basic building blocks. It helps fill in some of the gaps in the modern idea of quantum chromodynamics or QCD, the hypothesis of how quarks and gluons interact at the minor level. This state of matter at the most miniature scale is the basis for holding things together. The Odderon particle briefly forms when protons collide in high-energy collisions; if it doesn’t shatter, it bounces off one another to scatter. Protons are made up of quarks and gluons that briefly form Odderon and Pomeron particles.
