Examples
The procedure doesn’t make much physical sense, as gravitons are not literally pairs of gluons.
No one had seen gluons yet, or checked any of the important predictions.
An artistic rendering of the quarks and gluons that make up a proton.
We associate gravity with the fabric of space-time itself, while gluons move around in space-time.
That includes not just their size, but also their mass and the nature of their components — how, for example, the quarks and gluons that make them up are sprinkled around inside.
