Gluonic contributions to the self-energy of a nucleon have been investigatedin an effective theory. The couplings of the topological charge density tonucleons give rise to OZI violating nucleon interactions. The one-loopself-energy of a nucleon arising due to these interactions have been calculatedusing a heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The divergences have beenregularized using form factors. The nontrivial structure of the QCD vacuum hasalso been taken into account.Comment: 10 Pages, 2 figure
