Several factors make interactions between quarks and gluons more complicated to study.
For one, quarks are confined within larger particles, so they cannot be separated and
studied in isolation. Also, the force between two quarks becomes larger as they move
farther apart, whereas the force between a nucleus and an electron, or two nucleons
in a nucleus, grows weaker as their separation increases.
