Abstract
From recent high quality data taken at LEAR on the strangeness-exchange reaction ppBAR --> LAMBDA-BAR-LAMBDA we could determine the LAMBDA-pK coupling constant at the kaon pole. The value found is f-LAMBDA-pK2 = 0.071 +/- 0.007 or equivalently g-LAMBDA-pK2 = 15.4 +/- 1.5. Using SU(3) symmetry for the pseudovector coupling constants we find for the ratio alpha = F/(F + D) the value alpha-PV = 0.34 +/- 0.04, in excellent agreement with the value alpha = 0.355 +/- 0.006 as obtained from weak semileptonic baryon decays.
