Abstract
We show that spherically symmetric chiral SU(2)×SU(2) solitons are unstable under spin-isospin rotations. Namely, the effective potential including the effects of quantizing the collective coordinate corresponding to such a rotation has no minimum in the class of functions used to describe such solitons.
