| Mar 11, 2017 at 16:20 | comment | added | Lewis Miller | Another way of looking at the E&M force between neutrons and protons is via their anomalous magnetic moments. So there is no coulomb interaction between them but they do interact magnetically. | |
| Mar 11, 2017 at 9:27 | comment | added | Mihai B. | Protons and neutrons are made out of quarks, so we could say that in a sense there is electro-magnetic field interaction; but the superposition of the electric fields from the neutron's quarks is so small because positive quarks' field will cancel negative quarks' field, so overall, there will be almost no big enough electromagnetic interaction in the sense of Coulomb force (practically 0). But the field superposition will be there none the less, even if the sum is 0. | |

| Mar 11, 2017 at 8:30 | comment | added | Yashas | There is no electromagnetic attractive force between the proton and the neutron. There are strong forces, however. The neutron sits between two protons and glues them together. It also increases the distance between the two which helps in reducing the electromagnetic force between two protons. | |
