Abstract

We calculate the hadronic coupling constants gNNπg_{NN\pi} and gρππg_{\rho\pi\pi} in QCD, including dynamical quarks in the framework of staggered fermions in the lattice approach. For the nucleon--pion coupling we obtain gNNπ=13.8±5.8g_{NN\pi} = 13.8 \pm 5.8, to be compared with the experimental value 13.13±0.0713.13 \pm 0.07. The ρππ\rho\pi\pi coupling has been analysed for two different sets of operators with the averaged result gρππ=4.2±1.9g_{\rho\pi\pi} = 4.2 \pm 1.9 which is to be compared with the experimental value 6.06±0.016.06 \pm 0.01.
