New Manifestations of the Strong Nuclear Interactions in Solids

Abstract

The discovery of global macroscopic, including optical, characteristics with the addition of one neutron made crystals LiH, LiD, Diamond, Graphene an
excellent model for studying the strong nuclear interaction. New manifestations of strong interaction in solids are measurements of its dependence on the distance between nucleons, finding a neutron - electron binding energy (106 meV), which is in excellent agreement with the prediction of the theory (106,7 meV). Moreover, the creation of mass in massless Dirac fermions in graphene by strong nuclear interaction has been demonstrated for the first time.
