The gluon spin in the chiral bag model
2000
We study the gluon polarization contribution at the quark model renormalization scale to the proton spin, $\Gamma$, in the chiral bag model. It is evaluated by taking the expectation value of the forward matrix element of a local gluon operator in the axial gauge $A^+=0$. It is shown that the confining boundary condition for the color electric field plays an important role. When a solution satisfying the boundary condition for the color electric field, which is not the conventionally used but which we favor, is used, the $\Gamma$ has a positive value for {\it all} bag radii and its magnitude is comparable to the quark spin polarization. This results in a significant reduction in the relativ…
Light-cone quark model with spin force for the nucleon and Δ (1232)
1992
Abstract Electromagnetic structure functions for the nucleon, static observables for the nucleon and N → Δ (1232) transition form factors are calculated in a relativistic constituent quark model on the light cone. The model simulates the main effect of the spin force between quarks in terms of smaller (and lighter) scalar ud diquarks in the nucleon. The polarized proton structure function is found to agree with the EMC data.
Strong pionic decays of baryons from a spectroscopic quark model
1996
From a refined non-relativistic quark model that fits the baryonic low-energy spectrum the study of strong pion decay processes within an elementary emission model scheme points out the need of incorporating size-contributing components into the baryon wave functions. In particular the effect of a (qqq ) component is investigated in the framework of a quark pair creation model.
Transverse-Momentum Distributions and Spherical Symmetry
2011
Transverse-momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs) are studied in the framework of quark models. In particular, quark model relations among TMDs are reviewed and their physical origin is discussed in terms of rotational-symmetry properties of the nucleon state in its rest frame.
A phenomenological quark current for the study of the polarized structure function of the nucleon
1995
In the context of the quark model, a phenomenological expression for the electromagnetic interaction is derived in order to study the polarized structure function of the nucleon. The DHG value without hyperfine corrections and the asymptotic behaviour are reproduced.
Constraints on additionalZ′gauge bosons from a precise measurement of theZmass
1990
We analyze the constraints on the mass and mixing of superstring-inspired E{sub 6} {ital Z}{prime} neutral gauge boson that follow from the recent precise {ital Z} mass measurements and show that they depend very sensitively on the assumed value of the {ital W} mass and also, to a lesser extent, on the top-quark mass.
Prediction of NarrowN*andΛ*Resonances with Hidden Charm above 4 GeV
2010
Up to now, all established baryons can be ascribed into 3-quark (qqq) configurations [1], although some of them were suggested to be meson-baryon dynamically generated states [2–8] or states with large (qqqq¯ q) components [9–11]. A difficulty to pin down the nature of these baryon resonances is that the predicted states from various models are around the same energy region and there are always some adjustable ingredients in each model to fit the experimental data. In this letter, we report a study of the interactions between various charmed mesons and charmed baryons within the framework of the coupled channel unitary approach with the local hidden gauge formalism. Several meson-baryon dyn…
Quark-model study of few-baryon systems
2005
We review the application of non-relativistic constituent quark models to study one, two and three non-strange baryon systems. We present results for the baryon spectra, potentials and observables of the NN, N$\Delta$, $\Delta\Delta$ and NN$^*(1440)$ systems, and also for the binding energies of three non-strange baryon systems. We make emphasis on observable effects related to quark antisymmetry and its interplay with quark dynamics.
Nucleon Structure Functions in a Constituent Quark Scenario
1999
Using a simple picture of the constituent quark as a composite system of point-like partons, we construct the polarized part on distributions by a convolution between constituent quark momentum distributions and constituent quark structure functions. We achieve good agreement with experiments in the unpolarized as well as in the polarized case, though a good description of the recent polarized neutron data requires the introduction of one more paramater. When our results are compared with similar calculations using non-composite constituent quarks, the accord with the experiments of the present scheme is impressive. We conclude that DIS data are consistent with a low energy scenario dominat…
Exclusive semileptonic heavy meson decays including lepton mass effects
1990
We discuss the exclusive semi-leptonic (s.l.) bottom meson decaysB→D(D*)+l+v where we include non-zero lepton mass effects in the kinematics and dynamics. We develop the general formalism for the non-zero lepton mass case. We then look at how rates, spectra and angular correlations are affected by non-zero lepton masses in the context of a specific spectator quark model. Numerical results are presented for s.l. decays involving thee-, μ- and τ-leptons. We also discuss the s.l. decaysB→π(ρ),D→K(K*) and the free quark decay model.
