Proton spin in a light-cone chiral quark model

Proton spin in a light-cone chiral quark model

We discuss the spin structure of the proton in a light-cone treatment of the chiral quark model. Based on the fact that the quark helicity ($\ensuremath{\Delta}q$) measured in polarized deep inelastic scattering experiments is actually the quark spin defined in the light-cone formalism rather than the quark spin ($\ensuremath{\Delta}{q}_{QM}$) defined …
