Abstract: (Elsevier)
In the quark model with current-current interaction, non-leptonic hyperon decays are controlled by the baryon wave function at small distances. An independent estimate of this quantify is provided by a related phenomenon: the baryon electromagnetic hyperfine splittings, given by the Fermi contact interaction. A good estimate is obtained with the standard Cabibbo-suppressed interaction. Important remaining problems for S -waves are emphasized.- HYPERON: NONLEPTONIC DECAY
