Virtual meson cloud of the nucleon and generalized parton distributions

نویسنده

چکیده

We present the general formalism required to derive generalized parton distributions within a convolution model where the bare nucleon is dressed by its virtual meson cloud. In the one-meson approximation the Fock states of the physical nucleon are expanded in a series involving a bare nucleon and two-particle, meson-baryon, states. The baryon is assumed here to be either a nucleon or a ∆ described within the constituent quark model in terms of three valence quarks; correspondingly, the meson, assumed to be a pion, is described as a quark-antiquark pair. Explicit expressions for the unpolarized generalized parton distributions are obtained and evaluated in different kinematics.

Generalized parton distributions in a meson cloud model

We present a model calculation of the generalized parton distributions where the nucleon is described by a quark core surrounded by a mesonic cloud. In the one-meson approximation, we expand the Fock state of the physical nucleon in a series involving a bare nucleon and two-particle, meson-baryon, states. We discuss the role of the different Fock-state components of the nucleon by deriving a co...

Generalized parton distributions in the deuteron.

We introduce generalized quark and gluon distributions in the deuteron, which can be measured in exclusive processes like deeply virtual Compton scattering and meson electroproduction. We discuss the basic properties of these distributions and point out how they probe the interplay of nucleon and parton degrees of freedom in the deuteron wave function.

Generalized Parton Distributions and the Spin Structure of the Nucleon

Generalized parton distributions are a type of hadronic observables which has recently stimulated great interest among theorists and experimentalists alike. Introduced to delineate the spin structure of the nucleon, the orbital angular momentum of quarks in particular, the new distributions contain vast information about the internal structure of the nucleon, with the usual electromagnetic form...

Generalized parton distributions: Status and perspectives

We summarize recent developments in understanding the concept of generalized parton distributions (GPDs), its relation to nucleon structure, and its application to high–Q2 electroproduction processes. Following a brief review of QCD factorization and transverse nucleon structure, we discuss (a) new theoretical methods for the analysis of deeply–virtual Compton scattering (t–channel–based GPD pa...

Probing chiral-odd GPD’s in diffractive electroproduction of two vector mesons

We consider the electroproduction of two vector mesons with a large rapidity gap between them on a nucleon target in the process γN → ρ1ρ2N . We calculate the Born term for this process within the collinear factorization framework. The resulting scattering amplitude may be represented as a convolution of an impact factor describing the γ → ρ1 transition and an amplitude describing the N → ρ2N ′...
