Comment on ‘‘p¯p→Λ¯Λreaction in the one-gluon-exchange and theP03models’’

A number of recent papers have compared the ${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{P}_0^{}{}_{}{}^{}$ and ${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{S}_1^{}{}_{}{}^{}$ models for N¯N annihilation. We argue that a more consistent approach is to use both models together because they represent different aspects of quantum chromodynamics. In the approximation of the paper on which this Comment is based, our approach gives better agreement with data.
