Former Fermilab scientist Al Brenner died on April 13 in Washington, D.C. He was one of the original members of the Fermilab scientific staff. He was a member of several experiments in the lab’s first decades but was best known as the father of computing at Fermilab.
Good news: there is a theory to describe the strong interaction, the interactions that bind the constituents of protons and neutrons together and create the strong force. Bad news: Calculations using the theory can be made in only a limited selection of natural phenomena.
