Structure Functions of the Nucleon in a Covariant Scalar Spectator Model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

Nucleon structure functions, as measured in deep-inelastic lepton scattering, are studied within a covariant scalar diquark spectator model. Regarding the nucleon as an approximate two-body bound state of a quark and diquark, the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) for the bound state vertex function is solved in the ladder approximation. The valence quark distribution is discussed in terms of the solutions of the BSE.
