Covariant nucleon wave function with S, D, and P-state components

چکیده
Expressions for the nucleon wave functions in the covariant spectator theory (CST) are derived. The nucleon is described as a system with a off-mass-shell constituent quark, free to interact with an external probe, and two spectator constituent quarks on their mass shell. Integrating over the internal momentum of the on-mass-shell quark pair allows us to derive an effective nucleon wave function that can be written only in terms of the quark and diquark (quark-pair) variables. The derived nucleon wave function includes contributions from S, P and D-waves.

Spin and angular momentum in the nucleon
Using the covariant spectator theory (CST), we present the results of a valence quark-diquark model calculation of the nucleon structure function f(x) measured in unpolarized deep inelastic scattering (DIS), and the structure functions g1(x) and g2(x) measured in DIS using polarized beams and targets. Parameters of the wave functions are adjusted to fit all the data. The fit fixes both the shap...

A b s t r a c t The light-cone wave function of the nucleon is calculated in the limit N c → ∞ in the quark-soliton model inspired by the theory of the instanton vacuum of QCD. The technique of the finite time evolution operator is used in order to derive expressions for all components of the Fock vector describing the nucleon in the infinite momentum frame. It is shown that nucleon wave functi...
متن کاملCovariant L - S Scheme for the effective N ∗ NM couplings
For excited nucleon states N of arbitrary spin coupling to nucleon (N) and meson (M), we propose a Lorentz covariant orbital-spin (L-S) scheme for the effective NNM couplings. To be used for the partial wave analysis of various N production and decay processes, it combines merits of two conventional schemes, i.e., covariant effective Lagrangian approach and multipole analysis with amplitudes ex...
