Is There Any Difference Between Strong Quarks Force and Strong Nuclear Force?
the spectrum of quarkonium and the comparison with positronium potential for the strong force is:
$V(r) = - \frac{4}{3} \frac{\alpha_s(r) \hbar c}{r} + kr$
(where the constant $k$ determines the ...

Is there an equation for the strong nuclear force?
The equation describing the force due to gravity is $$F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}.$$ Similarly the force due to the electrostatic force is $$F = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}.$$
Is there a similar equation ...
