Photo- and electro-production of medium mass Lambda-hypernuclei

Nuclear Theory 2007-06-27 v1

Abstract

The characteristic and selective nature of the electro-magnetic production of Lambda-hypernuclei in exciting states is demonstrated assuming the medium-mass targets 28Si, 40Ca, and 52Cr. Formalism of DWIA is used adopting the Saclay-Lyon, Kaon-MAID, Adelseck-Saghai, and Williams-Ji-Cotanch models for the elementary amplitudes and various nuclear and hypernuclear wave functions. The elementary amplitudes are discussed in detail presenting their basic properties and comparison with data. The unique features of the electro-magnetic production of Lambda-hypernuclei shown on examples are the slective excitation of unnatural parity highest-spin states (natural parity ones for the LS-closed targets) and a possibilty to investigate the Lambda single-particle energies including a spin-orbit splitting using variety of medium-mass targets.
