Sea Contributions and Nucleon Structure

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We suggest a general formalism to treat a baryon as a composite system of three quarks and a `sea'. In this formalism, the sea is a cluster which can consists of gluons and quark-antiquark pairs. The hadron wave function with a sea component is given. The magnetic moments, related sum rules and axial weak coupling constants are obtained. The data seems to favor a vector sea rather than a scalar sea. The quark spin distributions in the nucleon are also discussed.
