Parton distribution functions give the probability to find partons (quarks and gluons) in a hadron as a function of the fraction x of the proton's momentum carried by the parton. They are conventionally defined in terms of matrix elements…
We investigate the valence $u$ and $\bar{s}$ quark distribution functions of the $K^+$ meson, $v^{K(u)}(x,Q^2)$ and $v^{K(\bar{s})}(x,Q^2)$, in the framework of the chiral constituent quark model. We judiciously choose the bare…

The spin-dependent structure functions g_2 (x, Q^2) are investigated within the framework of the chiral quark soliton model. It turns out that the twist-3 part of g_2 (x, Q^2) gives nonnegligible contributions to the total distributions at…
