Mesons and the Structure of Nucleons
The role of mesons, particularly the pion, in the structure of nucleons is
reviewed and investigated. Since quark-antiquark pairs are likely to
``transform" into mesons at large distances, mesons are expected to contribute
to nucleon structure. Their effects on the Gottfried sum rule, on the
strangeness content of the nucleon, and on the spin of the nucleon are
discussed.Comment: 15 pages, TeX file followed by 3 uuencoded PostScript figures

New approach to He charge distribution
We present a study of the He charge distribution based on realistic
nucleonic wave functions and incorporation of the nucleon's quark substructure.
The central depression of the proton point density seen in modern four-body
calculations is too small by itself to lead to a correct description of the
charge distribution. We utilize six-quark structures calculated in the
Chromodielectric Model for N-N interactions, and we find a swelling of the
proton charge distribution as the internucleon distance decreases. These charge
distributions are combined with the He wave function using the Independent
Pair Approximation and two-body distributions generated from Green's Function
Monte Carlo calculations. We obtain a reasonably good fit to the experimental
charge distribution without including meson exchange currents.Comment: 9 pages, LaTeX, 4 figures (Figures 1 and 2 doesn't exist as

The Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction in the Chromo-Dielectric Soliton Model: Dynamics
The present work is an extension of a previous study of the nucleon-nucleon
interaction based on the chromo-dielectric soliton model. The former approach
was static, leading to an adiabatic potential. Here we perform a dynamical
study in the framework of the Generator Coordinate Method. In practice, we
derive an approximate Hill-Wheeler differential equation and obtain a local
nucleon-nucleon potential as a function of a mean generator coordinate. This
coordinate is related to an effective separation distance between the two
nucleons by a Fujiwara transformation. This latter relationship is especially
useful in studying the quark substructure of light nuclei. We investigate the
explicit contribution of the one-gluon exchange part of the six-quark
Hamiltonian to the nucleon-nucleon potential, and we find that the dynamics are
responsible for a significant part of the short-range N-N repulsion.Comment: 16 pages (REVTEX), 6 figures (uuencoded Postscript) optionally

ON THE INTRINSIC CHARM COMPONENT OF THE NUCLEON
Using a meson cloud model we calculate the squared charm radius
of the nucleon . The ratio between this squared radius and the ordinary baryon
squared radius is identified with the probability of ``seeing'' the intrinsic
charm component of the nucleon. Our estimate is compatible with those used to
successfully describe the charm production phenomenology.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures not included, avaiable from the author
Reduction-Based Creative Telescoping for Algebraic Functions
Continuing a series of articles in the past few years on creative telescoping
using reductions, we develop a new algorithm to construct minimal telescopers
for algebraic functions. This algorithm is based on Trager's Hermite reduction
and on polynomial reduction, which was originally designed for hyperexponential
functions and extended to the algebraic case in this paper
Omega Meson Cloud and the Proton's Light Anti-Quark Distribution
We use the meson cloud model of the nucleon to calculate distribution
functions for and in the proton.
Including the effect of the omega meson cloud, with a coupling constant
, allows a reasonably good description of the data.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, LaTe
