Quark antisymmetrization effects in nuclear physics

We analyze the observability of quark phenomena in nuclei by studying the effects of the antisymmetrization principle at the quark level in nuclear observables. We discuss the physics associated with one body quark observables and in particular pay special attention to the so called maximal Pauli blocking scenarios. We comment about the calculation of two body quark observables showing results of the Coulomb energy for a two nucleon system with deuteron quantum numbers. (author)
