Omega Meson Cloud and the Proton's Light Anti-Quark Distribution

Abstract

We use the meson cloud model of the nucleon to calculate distribution functions for ( d - u) and d/u in the proton. Including the effect of the omega meson cloud, with a coupling constant gω2/4π≈ 8, allows a reasonably good description of the data.
