For the massless common vector-axial coupling at both vertices in weak charged-current quark scattering, subtracting opposite directions givesIt is undefined for . Overall rate normalization cancels. Pure vector or axial interactions have zero asymmetry, while gives its maximal coefficient. The inequality implies . This unpolarized observable does not distinguish purely left- from purely right-handed couplings applied at both vertices.
