5.5. STRUCTURE OF MEDIATOR CLOUDS AROUND SUBATOMIC PARTICLES 327
Consequently, if the naked hadron is white, then the gluon cloudπis white as well: Indc(π) =
w.
5.5.2 Gluons
If there exist free gluons, then they must be white color:
Indc(g) =w for free gluonsg.
It is now an unknown problem that if there are free gluons.
