The $\pi \sigma$-Axial Exchange Current

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

The axial exchange current operator that arises from the coupling of the axial field to the pion and effective scalar field in nuclei is constructed. The spatial dependence of this exchange current operator may be determined directly from the nucleon-nucleon interaction. This "πσ\pi\sigma"-axial exchange current contributes about 5\% to the quenching of the nucleon axial current coupling constant gAGTg_A^{GT} in heavy nuclei.
