Such behavior is a unique characteristic of Goldstone boson loops in chiral theories, including QCD, and establishes the unambiguous role played by the Goldstone boson cloud in the sea of the proton. Generalizing the results to the SU(3) sector, we show that strange chiral loops require that the s - sbar distribution be non-zero.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2000-08-12T21:26:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dynamical symmetry breaking", "flavor asymmetry dbar", "strange chiral loops", "goldstone boson cloud", "goldstone boson loops" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
