Abstract
Several methods of generating three constituent quarks in a nucleon are evaluated which explicitly maintain the nucleon's center of mass and desired radial distribution and can be used within Monte Carlo Glauber frameworks. The geometric models provided by each method are used to generate distributions over the number of constituent quark participants in , and collisions. The results are compared with each other and to a previous result of calculations, without this explicit constraint, used in measurements of GeV , and collisions at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.
