We present the results of a recent analysis to study the nucleons charm sigma term, $sigma_{coverline{c}}$. We construct a minimal model in terms of light-front variables and constrain the range of possibilities using extant knowledge from deeply inelastic scattering (DIS) and Bayesian parameter estimation, ultimately computing $sigma_{coverline{c}}$ in an explicitly covariant manner. We find a close correlation between a possible nonperturbative component of the charm structure function, $F^{coverline{c}}_{2,, mathrm{IC}}$, and $sigma_{coverline{c}}$. Independent of prescription for the covariant relativistic quark-nucleon vertex, we determine $sigma_{coverline{c}}$ under several different scenarios for the magnitude of intrinsic charm (IC) in DIS, namely $langle x rangle_{c+overline{c}} = 0.1%$, $0.35%$, and $1%$, obtaining for these $sigma_{coverline{c}} = 4 pm 4$, $12 pm 13$, and $32 pm 34$ MeV, respectively. These results imply the existence of a reciprocity between the IC parton distribution function (PDF) and $sigma_{coverline{c}}$ such that new information from either DIS or improved determinations of $sigma_{c overline{c}}$ could significantly impact constraints to the charm sector of the proton wave function.
An outstanding goal of physics is to find solutions that describe hadrons in the theory of strong interactions, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). For this goal, the light-front Hamiltonian formulation of QCD (LFQCD) is a complementary approach to the wel
A status report is given for a joint project of the Budapest-Marseille-Wuppertal collaboration and the Regensburg group to study the quark mass-dependence of octet baryons in SU(3) Baryon XPT. This formulation is expected to extend to larger masses t
The pion properties in symmetric nuclear matter are investigated with the Quark-Meson Coupling (QMC) Model plus the light-front constituent quark model~(LFCQM). The LFCQM has been quite successful in describing the properties of pseudoscalar mesons i
We obtain the light meson mass spectroscopy from the light-front quantum chromodynamics (QCD) Hamiltonian, determined for their constituent quark-antiquark and quark-antiquark-gluon Fock components, together with a three-dimensional confinement. The
The $eta$-meson production in photon- and hadron-induced reactions, namely, $gamma p to p eta$, $pi^- p to n eta$, $pp to ppeta$, and $pn to pneta$, are investigated in a combined analysis in order to learn about the relevant production mechanisms an
