Scalar and Tensor Sea Contributions to Nucleons

Abstract

Statistical approach for proton and neutron have been used to study the low energy properties of nucleons. Nucleons is assumed as a composite system of three quarks and "sea" where sea is assumed to be in S-wave consisting of quark-antiquark pairs (u]u,dd only) and gluons. Here the contributions from scalar, vector and tensor sea is taken into consideration to find α and β. Distribution of spin among valence quarks and sea-quark for proton and neutron are denoted by I1pand I1n respectively. Statistical model predicted the values as 0.132 and -0.011 which is close to EMC experimental value 0.136 and -0.013 for I1p and I1n respectively. Although the statistical model predictions give close to EMC data for neutron spin distribution. The results have also been compared with the Simple quark model results that matches well with SU(6) model..
