Valence Quark Structure of Pion Using Light Front Dynamics
摘要
In this work, we investigate the leading twist valence quark distribution functions of pion using the light cone quark model (LCQM). We calculate the time reversal \(f_1(x,{\textbf {k}}^2_\perp )\) quark transverse momentum parton distribution functions (TMDs) using the S-wave and P-wave meson state along with the parton distribution functions (PDFs). It is found that the S-wave contributes 94% to the TMDs and PDFs of pion, while P-wave contributes only 6%. We also calculate the average \(\langle {\textbf {k}}_\perp \rangle \) , Mellin moment ( \(\langle x \rangle \) ) and inverse moment ( \(\langle x^{-1} \rangle \) ) for valence quark of pion.
