On the polarization of the nucleon sea in the meson cloud model

Abstract

It is pointed out that the meson cloud model predicts a substantial polarization of the sea quarks of the nucleon due to interference of π and exchanges. This polarization is strongly flavour dependent. The model gives an explanation of a strong increase in the structure function g1 with isospin I=1 at small x.
