Probing the parton content of the nucleon

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2010-01-26 v1

Abstract

The parton content of the nucleon is explored within a meson-cloud model developed to derive light-cone wave functions for the physical nucleon. The model is here applied to study electromagnetic form factors, distribution amplitudes and nucleon-to-meson transition distribution amplitudes.
