Abstract

We explore the S-wave and P-wave amplitudes for NNKNNK and ΛΛK\Lambda\Lambda K interactions using chiral perturbation theory to O(mslogms){\cal O}(m_s\log m_s). In contrast to the large corrections found in P-wave amplitudes in the nonleptonic decay of octet baryons, the NNKNNK amplitudes receive only small corrections to their tree-level values. The uncertainty in the ΛΛK\Lambda\Lambda K amplitudes is found to be large.
