Abstract

Incorporating chiral-symmetry to the potential model of quarks with confining potentialU(r)=1/2 (1 +γ°)ar 2 with m q =10 MeV anda=2.273 fm−3 that gives a reasonable quark-core contribution to μ p , 〈r 2 1/2 p andg A , the quark-pion coupling constant for quarks in a nucleon is estimated.G 2 qqπ /4π obtained between 0.4 and 0.5 is consistent with those extracted from experimental vector meson decay-width ratios by Suzuki and Bhaduri. The nucleon-pion coupling constantG 2 NNπ /4π comes out to be of the order of 13.1 in reasonable agreement with the experimental value.
