Abstract

We investigate the vector and axial-vector constants for hyperon semileptonic decays within a general framework of a chiral soliton model. All relevant parameters for the SU(3) baryon wave functions were unambiguously determined by using the experimental data on the masses of the baryon octet and the decuplet. Using then the existing experimental data on the magnetic moments of the baryon octet and the decay constants of hyperon semileptonic decays, we are able to determine all the hyperon semileptonic decay constants ${({f}_{2}/{f}_{1})}^{{B}_{1}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{B}_{2}}$ and ${({g}_{1}/{f}_{1})}^{{B}_{1}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{B}_{2}}$ of the baryon octet unequivocally. In addition, we also present the results of the axial-vector constants for the transitions from the baryon decuplet to the octet.
