Nucleon properties in the perturbative chiral quark model — •Thomas Gutsche, Valery Lyubovitskij, and Amand Faessler — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 14, D-72076 Tübingen, Germany

We review applications of the perturbative chiral quark model (PCQM) to analyze low-energy properties of the nucleon: electromagnetic form factors [1], meson-nucleon sigma-terms [2], electromagnetic corrections to pion-nucleon scattering [3] and strangeness content of the nucleon [4]. The PCQM is based on an effective Lagrangian, where baryons are described by relativistic valence quarks and a perturbative cloud of Goldstone bosons as required by chiral symmetry. Analytical expressions for nucleon observables are obtained in terms of fundamental parameters of low-energy pion-nucleon physics (weak pion decay constant, axial nucleon coupling constant, strong pion-nucleon form factor) and of only one model parameter (radius of the nucleonic three-quark core).
