Three-dimensional imaging of the nucleon in momentum space

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Transverse-momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs) are studied in the framework of quark models. Results for the six T-even TMDs are obtained from the overlap of three-quark light-cone wave functions, using both the chiral quark-soliton model and a light-cone constituent quark model. Furthermore, quark model relations among TMDs are reviewed and their physical origin is discussed in terms of rotational-symmetry properties of the nucleon state in its rest frame.
