外电报道如下:Americans David J. Gross, H. David Politzer and Frank Wilczek won the 2004 Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for their explanation of the force that binds particles inside the atomic nucleus. Atomic nucleus表示“原子核”,nucleus是nuclear的复数。nuclear除了“原子核”的含义外,还表示“细胞核,核心”,例如:a nuclear membrane(细胞核膜);nuclear family(核心家庭)。
