Abstract
It is shown in the work of one of the authors in 1979 (MKV)
that the contribution to the amplitude of this decay from
diagrams with one baryon loop is equal to zero and contributions
from diagrams with meson loops appear very small. However, pole
diagrams with intermediate vector mesons were not considered
there. Here it is shown that contributions of these pole diagrams
dominate.
The meson-baryon chiral model used here is compared with
known quark chiral models. The obtained results are in
satisfactory agreement with recent experimental data.
