In the case of interacting nucleons, the dotted line would be a virtual pion.

The 1947 discovery of the pion ushered in the modern era of particle physics.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Ahmad introduced the Chiral anomaly to calculate the pion decays in his work.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Each pion quickly decayed into both a neutrino and a heavier particle called a muon.
From the newscientist.com
Ideally, they would use muons but, in practice, they are using a close cousin, the pion.
From the economist.com
The researchers conclude that a process called pion production best explains the emission.
From the scienceblog.com
This has been so with every such pion decay anywhere in the Universe since the big bang.

More examples
  • A meson involved in holding the nucleus together; produced as the result of high-energy particle collision
  • Protein pigeon homolog also known as gamma-secretase activating protein (GSAP) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PION gene.
  • Any of three semistable mesons, having positive, negative or neutral charge, composed of up and down quarks/antiquarks
  • The least massive known spin-0 meson. The three charge states of the pion (negative, neutral and positive) are involved in the long-range force between the nucleons.
  • A meson made of an up or down quark and an anti-up or anti-down quark. They are the lightest mesons. Positively charged pions are made of an up quark and an antidown quark. Negatively charged mesons are made of a down quark and an antiup quark. ...
  • A meson with a mass of 1/7 times the mass of the proton.
  • A transient particle composed of a quark and an antiquark. Charged pions decay first into muons which then decay into electrons or positrons. A neutral pion is composed of a quark and its own antiquark; these quickly self-annihilate into gamma rays. (G)
