The induced pseudoscalar coupling ${g}_{p}$ is the least well known of the weak couplings of the proton's charged-current interaction. Its size is dictated by chiral symmetry arguments, and its measurement represents an important test of quantum chromodynamics at low energies. Experiments over the past decade have produced a large body of new data relevant to the coupling ${g}_{p}.$ These data include measurements of radiative and nonradiative muon capture on targets ranging from hydrogen and…

Induced pseudoscalar form factor of the nucleon at two-loop order in chiral perturbation theory
We calculate the imaginary part of the induced pseudoscalar form factor of the nucleon $G_P(t)$ in the framework of two-loop heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The effect of the calculated
Value of the Axial-Vector Coupling Strength in β and ββ Decays: A Review
In this review the quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling constant, $g_{\rm A}$, is discussed in nuclear $\beta$ and double-$\beta$ decays. On one hand, the nuclear-medium and nuclear many-body
Muon capture on the proton and deuteron
By measuring the lifetime of the negative muon in pure protium (1H), the MuCap experiment determines the rate of muon capture on the proton, from which the proton’s pseudoscalar coupling gp may be

Muonic hydrogen can provide a precise and independent value which may be compared with other determinations, such as ongoing lattice gauge theory calculations, and the importance of an improved [Formula: see text] determination for phenomenology is illustrated by considering the impact on critical neutrino-nucleus cross sections at neutrini oscillation experiments.
Axial and pseudoscalar form factors from charged current quasielastic neutrino-nucleon scattering
We study the scattering of neutrinos on polarized and unpolarized free nucleons, and also the polarization of recoil particles in these scatters. In contrast to electromagnetic processes, the

Measurement of the induced pseudoscalar coupling using radiative muon capture on hydrogen

A pure weak interaction such as muon decay μ → ev $$\overline{v}$$ is characterized by a V-A amplitude. When hadrons participate the strong force induces additional couplings and the reaction is
