Using a representation of the quark distribution inside the proton, where a short-range correlation between quarks is considered, we can describe the p-p elastic scattering differential cross section with experimental agreement in the range 0 :::; q2 :::; 10 (GeV/ c)2. Evaluations of the proton core and quark radii are obtained. From our analysis, we see that the suggested configuration of quarks inside the proton can be considered as a nearly realistic distribution even with a non-relativistic wavefunction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
