Axial-vector charges of the spin $\frac{1}{2}^+$ and spin $\frac{3}{2}^+$ light and charmed baryons in the SU(4) chiral quark constituent model

Abstract: Following the first clear evidence of the presence of intrinsic charm contribution in the proton, the axial-vector charges of the light and charmed baryons are investigated in the framework of $SU(4)$ chiral constituent quark model after including the explicit contributions from the $u\bar u $, $d\bar d $, $s\bar s $ and $c\bar c $ fluctuations. The axial-vector charges having physical significance correspond to the generators of the $SU(4)$ group with flavor singlet $\lambda^0$, flavor isovector $\lambda^3$, flavor hypercharge $\lambda^8$ and flavor charmed $\lambda^{15}$ combinations of axial-vector current at zero momentum transfer. In contemplation to further understand the $Q^2$ dependence of these charges, we have used the conventionally established dipole form of parametrization. The baryons considered here are the spin $\frac{1}{2}^+$ and spin $\frac{3}{2}^+$ multiplets decomposed further depending on the charm content of baryons.
