Abstract
The flavor asymmetry of the nucleon sea is discussed in an unquenched quark model for baryons in which the effects of quarkantiquark pairs are taken into account in an explicit form. The inclusion of
pairs leads automatically to an excess of
over
quarks in the proton, in ageement with experimental data.
Keywords: Protons and neutrons; quark models; flavor symmetries; Gottfried sum rule.
Resumen
Se discute la asimetría de sabor del nucleón en una extensión del modelo de cuarks en que se toman en cuenta de manera explícita los efectos de creación de pares cuarkanticuark . La inclusión de los pares
lleva inmediatamente a un exceso de cuarks
sobre
en el protón, de acuerdo con los datos experimentales.
Descriptores: Protones y neutrones, modelos de cuarks, simetría de sabor, regla de suma de Gottfried.
