In the 1930's, nuclear physicists developed the first realistic atomic models, showing that nuclei were made up of protons and neutrons. In the 1960's, Deep Inelastic Scattering experiments showed that protons and neutrons had internal…
The helicity distribution of the strange quark sea in the proton has been extracted from measurements of polarized production of charged kaons in deep-inelastic scattering from a polarized deuterium target.
Understanding the internal spin structure of the nucleon remains a challenge in strong interaction physics. The unique capability of RHIC opened new avenues in studying the internal structure of the proton with unprecedented depth and…

HERMES has measured azimuthal single-spin asymmetries of pions and charged kaons produced in deep-inelastic scattering of electrons and positrons off a transversely polarized hydrogen target. These asymmetries provide information about the…

Sea quark distributions in the nucleon have naively been expected to be generated perturbatively by gluon splitting. In this case, there is no reason for the light quark and anti-quark sea distributions to be different. No asymmetries in…
Background: Unravelling the role played by nonvalence flavors in baryons is crucial in deepening our comprehension of QCD. Strange quark, a component of the higher Fock states in baryons, is an appropriate tool to investigate…
A statistical framework in conjugation with the principle of detailed balance is employed to examine the low-energy properties i.e. charge radii and quadrupole moment of J$^P$=$\frac{1}{2}^+$ octet and J$^P$=$\frac{3}{2}^+$ decuplet baryon.…

Although the distributions of sea quarks and antiquarks generated by leading-twist QCD evolution through gluon splitting $g \rightarrow \bar q q$ are necessarily CP symmetric, the distributions of nonvalence quarks and antiquarks which are…

The intrinsic quark-antiquark pairs generated by the minimal energy nonperturbative meson-baryon fluctuations in the nucleon sea provide a consistent framework for understanding a number of empirical anomalies observed in the deep inelastic…
The simplest models might describe the nucleon as 3 light quarks, but this description would be incomplete without inclusion of the sea of glue and q-qbar pairs which binds it. Early indications of a particularly large contribution from…
