Goldberger–Treiman relation

E601754

The Goldberger–Treiman relation is a fundamental result in particle physics that links the strong pion–nucleon coupling constant to the axial-vector coupling of the nucleon and the pion decay constant, illuminating the role of chiral symmetry in low-energy hadron interactions.
