We study the pionic decay of a possible dibaryon d{sup {prime}}{r_arrow}N+N+{pi} in the microscopic quark shell model. The initial d{sup {prime}} dibaryon wave function (J{sup P}=0{sup {minus}}, T=0) consists of one 1{h_bar}{omega} six-quark shell-model s{sup 5}p[51]{sub X} configuration. The most important final six-quark configurations s{sup 6}[6]{sub X}, s{sup 4}p{sup 2}[42]{sub X}, and (s{sup 4}p{sup 2}{minus}s{sup 5}2s)[6]{sub X} are properly projected onto the NN channel. The final state NN interaction is investigated by means of two phase-equivalent{emdash}but off-shell different{emdash}potential models. We demonstrate that the decay width {Gamma}{sub d{sup {prime}}} depends strongly on the short-range behavior of the NN wave function. In addition, the width {Gamma}{sub d{sup {prime}}} is very sensitive to the mass and size of the d{sup {prime}} dibaryon. For dibaryon masses slightly above the experimentally suggested value M{sub d{sup {prime}}}=2.065GeV, we obtain a pionic decay width of {Gamma}{sub d{sup {prime}}}{approx}0.18{endash}0.32MeV close to the experimental value {Gamma}{sub d{sup {prime}}}{approx}0.5MeV. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
