9 5. Summary 9 ・ Gottfried sum is under assumption of parton model and isospin symmetry between a proton and a neutron. ・ The value for the Gottfried sum estimated in this experiment is ・ A flavor asymmetric sea is a likely explanation. There is more than in the proton. ・ The experimental results shows ・ Extrapolation to x=0(x=1)
