%0 Journal Article %T Flavor Structure of the Nucleon Sea %A Wen-Chen Chang %A Jen-Chieh Peng %J Physics %D 2014 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/j.ppnp.2014.08.002 %X We review the current status and future prospects on the subject of flavor structure of the nucleon sea. The flavor structure of the nucleon sea provides unique information on the non-perturbative aspects of strong interactions allowing stringent tests of various models on the partonic structures of the nucleons as well as lattice QCD calculations. The scope of this review covers the unpolarized, polarized, and the transverse-momentum dependent sea-quark distributions of the nucleons. While the main focus of this review is on the physics motivation and recent progress on the subject of the nucleon sea, we also discuss future prospects of addressing some outstanding issues on the flavor structure of the nucleon sea. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1406.1260v3
