Light Front Qcd And The Constituent Quark Model, Kenneth G. Wilson, David G. Robertson

Physics Faculty Scholarship

A general strategy is described for deriving a constituent approximation to QCD, inspired by the constituent quark model and based on light-front quantization. Some technical aspects of the approach are discussed, including a mechanism for obtaining a confining potential and ways in which spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking can be manifested
