Abstract

We argue that there are no charged current contributions to the parity violating NNπ coupling except for small contributions from flavour symmetry breaking effects. From the neutral current product only the left-right chiral component contributes which is considerably enhanced due to gluon corrections and due to the lightness of current quark masses. The resulting parity violating NNπ coupling has a definite phase and is ∼ 16 times stronger than the value used previously in nuclear physics calculations.
