Parton distribution function for quarks in an s-channel approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use an s-channel picture of hard hadronic collisions to investigate the parton distribution function for quarks at small momentum fraction x, which corresponds to very high energy scattering. We study the renormalized quark distribution at one loop in this approach. In the high-energy picture, the quark distribution function is expressed in terms of a Wilson-line correlator that represents the cross section for a color dipole to scatter from the proton. We model this Wilson-line correlator in a saturation model. We relate this representation of the quark distribution function to the corresponding representation of the structure function FT x;Q2 for deeply inelastic scattering.

An Interacting Parton Model for Quark and Anti-quark distributions in the Baryon
In this paper we study a 1+1 dimensional relativistic parton model for the structure of baryons. The quarks and anti-quarks interact through a linear potential. We obtain an analytic formula for the isospin averaged valence quark distribution in the chiral and large Nc limits. The leading 1 Nc and non-zero current quark mass corrections are estimated. Then we extend this model to include ‘sea’ ...
متن کاملA Recursive Approximation Approach of non-iid Lognormal Random Variables Summation in Cellular Systems
Co-channel interference is a major factor in limiting the capacity and link quality in cellular communications. As the co-channel interference is modeled by lognormal distribution, sum of the co-channel interferences of neighboring cells is represented by the sum of lognormal Random Variables (RVs) which has no closed-form expression. Assuming independent, identically distributed (iid) RVs, the...
متن کاملLow Q 2 wave - functions of pions and kaons and their parton distribution functions
We study the low Q 2 wave-functions of pions and kaons as an expansion in terms of hadron-like Fock state fluctuations. In this formalism, pion and kaon wave-functions are related one another. Consequently, the knowledge of the pion structure allows the determination of parton distributions in kaons. In addition, we show that the intrinsic (low Q 2) sea of pions and kaons are different due to t...
متن کاملGeneralized Parton Distributions and composite constituent quarks ∗ Sergio
An approach is proposed to calculate Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) in a Constituent Quark Model (CQM) scenario, considering the constituent quarks as complex systems. The GPDs are obtained from the wave functions of the non relativistic CQM of Isgur and Karl, convoluted with the GPDs of the constituent quarks themselves. The latter are modelled by using the structure functions of the ...
متن کاملImpact Parameter Space Interpretation for Generalized Parton Distributions
The Fourier transform of generalized parton distribution functions at ξ = 0 describes the distribution of partons in the transverse plane. The physical significance of these impact parameter dependent parton distribution functions is discussed. In particular, it is shown that they satisfy positivity constraints which justify their physical interpretation as a probability density. The generalize...
