Abstract
We pose a problem analogous to the spin crisis within the electroweak theory. It is shown that the forward matrix elements of j μB , the baryonic current, do not only measure the generally understood baryon number but also include a helicity dependent W-boson piece due to the anomaly. The anomalous contribution is explicitly calculated for the W-boson and the electron. We also demonstrate the correct procedure to extract the anomalous W-boson contribution to the forward matrix element of j +B.
