Quark Orbital-Angular-Momentum Distribution in the Nucleon
We introduce gauge-invariant quark and gluon angular momentum distributions after making a generalization of the angular momentum density operators. From the quark angular momentum distribution, we define the gauge-invariant and leading-twist quark orbital angular momentum distribution Lq(x). The latter can be extracted from data on the polarized and unpolarized quark distributions and the off-...
متن کاملSpin and Orbital Angular Momentum Distribution Functions of the Nucleon
A theoretical prediction is given for the spin and orbital angular momentum distribution functions of the nucleon within the framework of an effective quark model of QCD, i.e. the chiral quark soliton model. An outstanding feature of the model is that it predicts fairly small quark spin fraction of the nucleon ∆Σ ≃ 0.35, which in turn dictates that the remaining 65% of the nucleon spin is carri...
متن کاملQuark Orbital Angular Momentum in the Baryon
Analytical and numerical results, for the orbital and spin content carried by different quark flavors in the baryons, are given in the chiral quark model with symmetry breaking. The reduction of the quark spin, due to the spin dilution in the chiral splitting processes, is transferred into the orbital motion of quarks and antiquarks. The orbital angular momentum for each quark flavor in the pro...
متن کاملOrbital Angular Momentum in Chiral Quark Model
We developed a new and unified scheme for describing both quark spin and orbital angular momenta in symmetry-breaking chiral quark model. The loss of quark spin in the chiral splitting processes is compensated by the gain of the orbital angular momentum carried by quarks and antiquarks. The sum of both spin and orbital angular momenta carried by quarks and antiquarks is 1/2. The analytic and nu...
متن کاملQuark Orbital Angular Momentum from Lattice QCD
employs the Z2 noise with an unbiased subtraction. This reduced the error by a factor of 4 with negligible overhead. The total quark contribution to the proton spin is found to be 0.30±0.07. From this and the quark spin content we deduce the quark orbital angular momentum to be 0.17 ± 0.06 which is ∼ 34% of the proton spin. We further predict that the gluon angular momentum to be 0.20 ± 0.07, i...
