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 projection onto the Light-Front of a Minkowski space Faddeev-Bethe-Salpeter equation model truncated at the valence level is applied to study the proton structure with constituent quarks. The dynamics of the model has built-in: (i) a…
We recall how parton distributions are constructed in a statistical physical picture of the nucleon. The chiral properties of QCD lead to strong relations between quarks and antiquarks distributions and the importance of the Pauli exclusion…
