Abstract: (Elsevier)
The Δ-decay matrix element is calculated while carefully paying attention to ordering problems. The decay width obtained is too large by a factor of four. Arguments are given that this discrepancy is not a defect of the Skyrme model but a consequence of the rigid rotor quantization.
