The Constitutent Quark as a Topological Soliton
arXiv:hep-ph/9402292 · doi:10.1016/0550-3213(94)90289-5
Abstract
Recently it was proposed that the constituent quark is a topological soliton. I investigate this soliton, calculating its mass, radius, magnetic moment, color magnetic moment, and spin structure function. Within the approximations used, the magnetic moments and spin structure function cannot simultaneously be made to agree with the constituent quark model. Some discussion of what to expect from better approximations is included.
