| The theory of strong interactions, known as quantum chromodynamics, is well-developed and consistent with experiments, although it is not easy to test it very precisely. |
| Quantum chromodynamics, the current theory of the strong interactions, is a field theory of quarks and gluons. |
| A complex set of equations within the theory of quantum chromodynamics, or QCD, describes how quarks and gluons interact. |
| Then similar wisdom was applied to the strong nuclear force to yield quantum chromodynamics, or QCD, and this theory was also renormalizable. |
| This picture was improved upon by using a non-abelian gauge theory, Quantum Chromodynamics. |
| The same gluonic color flux controls almost any strong coupling dynamics in the theory of gluons, namely quantum chromodynamics. |
