Scalar form factor of the nucleon and nucleon--scalar meson coupling constant in QCD
Abstract
Description
Scalar form factor of the nucleon is calculated in the framework of light cone QCD sum rules, using the most general form of the baryon current. Using the result on scalar form factor of the nucleon, the nucleon-scalar "sigma" and "a_0" meson coupling constants are estimated. Our results on these couplings are in good agreement with the prediction of the external field QCD sum rules method.
