What Does VMD Stand For?

VMD stands for Vector Meson Dominance

Vector Meson Dominance (VMD) is a theoretical framework in particle physics that describes the interactions between hadrons in terms of vector mesons. According to this model, the exchange of vector mesons, such as the ?, ?, and ? mesons, dominates the electromagnetic form factors of hadrons. VMD provides a valuable connection between the behavior of hadronic systems and quantum electrodynamics, facilitating the understanding of processes like photon-hadron interactions and enhancing the interpretation of experimental data in high-energy physics.
