Abstract
We consider a model describing non-relativistic particles coupled to a massless quantum scalar field, called \emph{Nelson model}, under a binding condition on the external potential. We prove that this model does not admit ground state in the Fock representation of the canonical commutation relations, but it does in another not unitarily equivalent coherent representation. Remark that the binding condition is satisfied for small values of the coupling constant.
