why Nuclear Physics cannot be entirelly correct

I continue waiting a responce by a nuclear physicist

But I doubt any nuclear physicist come here, since he knows that he cannot explain such failure of Nuclear Physics

At least you've gained fuel for your persecution complex.

Perhaps they are turned off by your poor spelling and use of language.
 
It is odd to see such a genius unable to spell the simple words one learns in elementary school, but he could be a savant.

It's quite interesting to see people proud of exhibiting their ignorance
:D:D:D

... and I continue expecting a nuclear theorist to come here
:):):)
 
So you've come to a skeptics forum to find a nuclear physicist?

Why?

Instead of continuing to say nonsenses, I suggest everybody to invite a nuclear theorist to come in here, so that to explain us how the spin-interaction can influence the proton-neutron interaction according to Nuclear Physics.

I am primarily a nuclear experimentalist nowadays, but I've published in nucl-th, nucl-ex, hep-ex, hep-ph, and astro-ph. The spin of the nucleon is its angular momentum. This is (not coincidentally) oriented in the same direction as its magnetic moment, but they are different things. The spin is not "electromagnetic" in any way, shape, or form---and nor is it "strong" or "weak" or anything else. A spin-up particle simply has a different wavefunction than a spin-down particle, and that difference needs to go into any particle-interaction calculation you could possibly do.

Did you bother to notice, for example, that the gluon is spin-1? Yet it has no charge, no magnetic moment, etc.

Did you bother to notice that the W-boson is spin-1? It interacts with neutrinos (not electromagnetically) and it obviously cares about the neutrino spin.

What is the magnitude of the interaction between the wavefunction of a proton and a neutron, when they interact ?

Be more specific. What quantity do you want to know, in what units, for what experimental conditions?

Your inability to provide an accurate answer with experimental data backing you up when faced with a vague claim that modern physics are wrong proves pedrone correct.

the spin-down (or spin-up) produces a magnetic field ?

translation from my book Eisberg & Resnick, Quantum Physics (page 779, in portuguese):

Quantitavive evidences on the dependency of the spin in the potential nucleon-nucleon are obtained from the analysis corresponding to scattering proton-neutron with small kinetic energy.

In the page 778:

We know that there are not deuterons with spins essentially antiparallel.
[...]
What is the explanation?
The unique possible explanation would be that the potential nucleon-nucleon depends on the spin

Mayer-Jensen theory? Good heavens, why? Off the top of my head, I have no idea. I'll check my textbooks when I get back to the office.

Yes, this is well known. Like I said, it's not a problem---all particle-particle interactions, E&M-mediated or not, depend on spin.

What is the magnitude of the interactions by the spin ?

The spin produces magnetic fields or strong nuclear fields ?
 
I refuse to engage anyone here who is not a kosher butcher of at least average height.
 
ben m said:
No, it has nothing to do with the E&M fields. Instead, roughly speaking, it's related to the Pauli Exclusion Principle.

The proton has a magnetic moment.

What produces the proton's magnetic moment ?
