Cloudy Bag Model of hadrons

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6740625

The Cloudy Bag Model is a phenomenological representation of hadronic properties and meson-baryon scattering which includes both quark confinement and pionic cloud effects. The model has a partially conserved axial vector current and, in the limit of zero quark mass, obeys the current algebra relations of Gell-Mann and Levy. Early results are summarized and updated, and the current algebra properties of the model are discussed with emphasis on recent studies of mesonic decays. The connection between the axial vector form factor, pion-nucleon vertex function, and the Goldberger-Treiman relation is examined. 50 references. (LEW)
