Corrections to the Nuclear Axial Vector Coupling in a Nuclear Medium

Abstract

We examine further corrections to the time component of the axial vector coupling constant in a nuclear medium. The dominant correction is that of exchange currents. The corrections we examine make the remaining discrepancy worse.
