Description

We consider a 1+1 dimensional model for nuclei where the ‘nucleons’ are represented by a heavy-light system. This allows for the study of binding energies and quark distributions as a function of the separation between the nucleons. We find a significant shift of quark distributions towards smaller momentum.
