Meson Cloud and SU(3) Flavor Breaking in Parton Distributions
Abstract
We apply the Meson Cloud Model to the calculation of nonsinglet parton distributions in the nucleon sea trying to identify possible sources of SU(3) flavor breaking. We find that the existing SU(3) flavor asymmetry in the nucleon sea can be quantitatively explained by the meson cloud...
