Abstract

The structure of the T=1 iso-triplet hypernuclei, Λ7^7_{\Lambda}He, Λ7^7_{\Lambda}Li and Λ7^7_{\Lambda}Be within the framework of an α+Λ+N+N\alpha +\Lambda +N+N four-body cluster model is studied. Interactions between the constituent subunits are determined so as to reproduce reasonably well the observed low-energy properties of the αN\alpha N, αΛ\alpha \Lambda, αNN\alpha NN and αΛN\alpha \Lambda N subsystems. Furthermore, the two-body ΛN\Lambda N interaction is adjusted so as to reproduce the 0+0^+-1+1^+ splitting of Λ4^4_{\Lambda}H. Also a phenomenological ΛN\Lambda N charge symmetry breaking(CSB) interaction is introduced. The Λ\Lambda binding energy of the ground state in Λ7^7_{\Lambda}He is predicted to be 5.16(5.36) MeV with(without) the CSB interaction. The calculated energy splittings of the 3/2+3/2^+-5/2+5/2^+ states in Λ7^7_{\Lambda}He and Λ7^7_{\Lambda}Li are around 0.1 MeV. We point out that there is a three-layer structure of the matter distribution, α\alpha particle, Λ\Lambda skin, proton or neutron halo, in the Λ7He(J=5/2+)^7_{\Lambda}{\rm He}(J=5/2^+), Λ7Li(J=5/2+)^7_{\Lambda}{\rm Li}(J=5/2^+) and Λ7Be(J=1/2+)^7_{\Lambda}{\rm Be}(J=1/2^+) states.
