Phenomenological analysis of nucleon strangeness and meson-nucleon sigma terms

We calculate the nucleon strangeness $y_N$ in the chiral quark model and the meson cloud model. With the internal relation between the sigma term of $\pi$$N$ ($\sigma_{\pi N}$) and $y_N$, we present the results of $\sigma_{\pi N}$ in these two models. Our calculations show that $y_N$ from the chiral quark model is significant larger than that from the meson cloud model, whereas the difference of $\sigma_{\pi N}$ between the two models is relatively small. We also present the results of $\sigma_{K N}$ and $\sigma_{\eta N}$, which could be determined by $\sigma_{\pi N}$ and $y_N$ from their definition in the current algebra, and find that these two physical parameters are quite sensitive to $y_N$. The results indicate the necessity to restrict the parameters of the two models from more precision measurements.
