Chiral perturbation theory study of the axial $N\to \Delta (1232)$ transition

Abstract

We have performed a theoretical study of the axial Nucleon to Delta(1232) ($N\to \Delta$) transition form factors up to one-loop order in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory within a formalism in which the unphysical spin-1/2 components of the $\Delta$ fields are decoupled.
