(physics) Of, pertaining to, or mediated by gluons..
The two steps in the gluing of matter—quarks into nucleons, and nucleons into nuclei—remain mysterious, and both will be investigated at cebaf. A series of experiments on hadronic excitations will probe the consistent quark model; others will look for gluonic states or for strange quarks inside the proton or neutron.
