QCD at the amplitude level: Fock state interference in heavy quark electroproduction
Abstract Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) rigorously predicts the existence of both nonperturbative intrinsic and perturbative extrinsic heavy quark contents of nucleons. In this article we discuss the heavy quark electroproduction on protons induced by the Fock states ∣uud + g〉 of three valence quarks...
