Polarized quark distributions in nuclear matter

  • 1. Department of Physics, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195-1560 (United States)

Description

We compute the polarized quark distribution function of a bound nucleon. The chiral quark-soliton model provides the quark and antiquark substructure of the nucleon embedded in nuclear matter. Nuclear effects cause significant modifications to the polarized distributions, including an enhancement of the axial coupling constant
