Nucleon form factors and spin content in a quark-diquark model with a pion cloud

Nuclear Theory 2013-05-30 v2 Nuclear Experiment

Abstract

We propose a new model of the nucleon in which quark-diquark configurations immersed in a pion cloud are treated in a manner consistent with Poincar\'e invariance. With suitably chosen parameters, the computations employing this model reproduce the measured electromagnetic form factors and the quark-spin contribution to the total nucleon angular momentum.
