Hi,
I am a novice to nuclear physics and I was reading some stuff about quarks and how they can possesses fractional charge. I was wondering how this fractional charge behaves in an electric field. Does it just experience 1/3 of the force that an electron or a proton would feel in the same field as one would expect? Or are there other behaviors that we see? Thanks in advance for any help provided...
