Question

The short range attractive nuclear forces that are responsible for the binding of nucleons in a nucleus are supposed to be caused by the role played by the particles called
  1. Positron
  2. π- Meson
  3. K-Meson
  4. m-Meson

A
K-Meson
B
Positron
C
m-Meson
D
π- Meson
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The nuclear force between a neutron and proton is the result of the exchange of charged mesons (π+π) between them.
So, correct answer is π-Meson.
