The Nucleon Spin as Cause of the Strong Interaction: Spin up and Spin down

This work is a translation of the German edition "Der Nukleonenspin als Ursache der starken Wechselwirkung". (Dec. 2020). The strong interaction is supposed to describe the forces which are active in the atomic nucleus between the nuclear building blocks. Until today, however, it has not been possible to design a theory free of contradictions. Instead, in the 1970s, the theory of "quantum chromodynamics" emerged, in which the name itself is based on an analogy. Just like the "color charges"...
