Difference between revisions of "Hadronization"

'''Hadronization''' or '''hadron formation''' is the process by which [[Parton|partons]] ([[Quark|quarks]] and [[Gluon|gluons]]), which have [[Color charge|color charge]], form [[Bound state|bound states]] called [[Hadron|hadrons]], which are colorless. Hadronization happens in a [[Nonperturbative QCD|regime]] where the [[strong interaction]] is [[Strong coupling|too strong]] to make calculations using [[Perturbation theory|perturbation theory]]. It can therefore not be [[Ab-initio calculation|calculated from first principles]], but has to be described by a [[phenomenological model]]. Examples of [[Hadronization model|hadronization models]] are the early [[Field-Feynman model]] and the more modern [[Lund string model]] as well as the [[cluster model]].
