The results for the elastic nucleon form factors and the electromagnetic transition amplitudes to the Delta(1232) resonance, obtained with the Hypercentral Constituent Quark Model with the inclusion of a meson cloud correction are briefly presented. The pion cloud effects are explicitly discussed.

We report on ongoing work to determine the pion-cloud contribution to the electromagnetic $NrightarrowDelta$ transition form factors. The starting point is an $SU(6)$ spin-flavor symmetric constituent-quark model with instantaneous confinement that is augmented by dynamical pions which couple directly to the quarks. This system is treated in a relativistically invariant way within the framework of point-form quantum mechanics using a multichannel formulation. The first step is to determine the electromagnetic form factors of the bare particles that consist only of three quarks. These form factors are basic ingredients for calculating the pion-cloud contributions. Already without the pion cloud, electromagnetic nucleon and $Nrightarrow Delta$ transition form factors compare reasonably well with the data. By inclusion of the pion-cloud contribution coming from the $pi$-$N$ intermediate state the reproduction of the data is further improved.
${bf Background}$ Knowledge of nucleon structure is today ever more of a precision science, with heightened theoretical and experimental activity expected in coming years. At the same time, a persistent gap lingers between theoretical approaches grounded in Euclidean methods (e.g., lattice QCD, Dyson-Schwinger Equations [DSEs]) as opposed to traditional Minkowski field theories (such as light-front constituent quark models). ${bf Purpose}$ Seeking to bridge these complementary worldviews, we explore the potential of a Euclidean constituent quark model (ECQM). This formalism enables us to study the gluonic dressing of the quark-level axial-vector vertex, which we undertake as a test of the framework. ${bf Method}$ To access its indispensable elements with a minimum of inessential detail, we develop our ECQM using the simplified quark $+$ scalar diquark picture of the nucleon. We construct a hyperspherical formalism involving polynomial expansions of diquark propagators to marry our ECQM with the results of Bethe-Salpeter Equation (BSE) analyses, and constrain model parameters by fitting electromagnetic form factor data. ${bf Results}$ From this formalism, we define and compute a new quantity --- the Euclidean density function (EDF) --- an object that characterizes the nucleons various charge distributions as functions of the quarks Euclidean momentum. Applying this technology and incorporating information from BSE analyses, we find the dressing effect on the protons axial-singlet charge to be small in magnitude and consistent with zero. ${bf Conclusions}$ The scalar quark $+$ diquark ECQM is a step toward a realistic quark model in Euclidean space, and urges additional refinements. The small size we obtain for the impact of the dressed vertex on the axial-singlet charge suggests that models without this effect are on firm ground to neglect it.
Short-range quark-quark correlations are introduced into the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model phenomenologically. We study the effect of the correlations on the structure of the nucleon in dense nuclear matter. With the addition of correlations, the saturation curve for symmetric nuclear matter is much improved at high density.
An improved quark mass density- dependent model with the non-linear scalar sigma field and the $omega$-meson field is presented. We show that the present model can describe saturation properties, the equation of state, the compressibility and the effective nuclear mass of nuclear matter under mean field approximation successfully. The comparison of the present model and the quark-meson coupling model is addressed.
There exists experimental evidence that a dibaryon resonance d with quantum numbers J^P=0^-,T=0 and mass 2065 MeV could be the origin of the narrow peak in the (pi^+ ,pi^- ) double charge exchange cross--sections on nuclei. We investigate the six--quark system with these quantum--numbers within the constituent quark model, with linear confinement, effective one--gluon exchange at short range and chiral interactions between quarks (pi and sigma exchange). We classify all possible six quark states with J^P=0^-,T=0, and with N=1 and N=3 harmonic oscillator excitations, using different reduction chains. The six--quark Hamiltonian is diagonalized in the basis including the unique N=1 state and the 10 most important states from the N=3 shell. We find, that with most of the possible sets of parameters, the mass of such a dibaryon lies above the N(939)+N^ast(1535) threshold. The only possibility to describe the supposed d(2065) in the present context is to reduce the confinement strength to very small values, however at the expense of describing the negative parity resonances N^ast. We also analyze the J^P=0^-,T=2,N=1 six--quark state.
