Pseudoscalar Meson Parton Distributions Within Gauge-Invariant Nonlocal Chiral Quark Model
Abstract
In this paper, I investigate the gluon distributions for the kaon and pion, as well as the improvement of the valence-quark distributions, in the framework of the gauge-invariant nonlocal chiral quark model (NL), where the momentum dependence is taken into account. I then compute the gluon distributions for the kaon and pion that are dynamically generated from the splitting functions in the DGLAP QCD evolution. In a comparison with the recent lattice QCD and JAM global analysis results, it is found that the results for the pion gluon distributions at Q = 2 GeV, which is set based on the lattice QCD, have a good agreement with the recent lattice QCD data; this is followed up with the up valence-quark distribution of the pion results at Q = 5.2 GeV in comparison with the reanalysis experimental data. The prediction for the kaon gluon distributions at Q = 2 GeV is consistent with the recent lattice QCD calculation.
