Different effect of the hyperons $\Lambda$ and $\Xi$ on the nuclear core

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-07 v5

Abstract

We demonstrate the different effect of strange impurities (Λ\Lambda and Ξ\Xi) on the static properties of nuclei within the framework of the relativistic mean-field model. Systematic calculations show that the gluelike role of Λ\Lambda hyperon is universal for all Λ\Lambda-hypernuclei considered. However, Ξ\Xi^- hyperon has the gluelike role only for the protons distribution in nuclei, and for the neutrons distribution Ξ\Xi^- hyperon plays a repulsive role. On the other hand, Ξ0\Xi^0 hyperon attracts surrounding neutrons and reveals a repulsive force to the protons. Possible explanations of the above observation are discussed.
