Direct $qqq$ Force In High Momentum Limit of QCD For Proton Physics

Abstract

An explicit construction of the proton wave function is outlined in the high momentum limit of QCD dominated by a direct $qqq$ force, one generated by hooking the ends of a $ggg$ vertex to 3 distinct $\bar{q}gq$ vertices, thus making up a $Y$-shaped diagram (see fig.1). The high degree of $S_3$ symmetry thus involved ensures that the $qqq$ wave function is a mixture of $56,0^{+}$ and $20,1^{+}$ components, rather than the traditional $56,0^{+}$ and $70,0^{+}$ type. Some results of this paradigm shift are offered.
