Abstract: | A nonperturbative picture ofN (bar N) annihilation is proposed. In particular, different parts of the nucleon and the antinucleon do not behave independently, but are tied together by their topological charge. We describe theN (bar N) state as a coherent soliton-antisoliton configuration, and argue that vector mesons play an important role in the decay process. SomeS-wave selection rules are derived. Their relevance to the present LEAR experiments is discussed. |
