We analyse the $p p \to p \Lambda K^+$ total cross section data which were recently measured by the COSY-11 collaboration at an energy 2~MeV above the reaction threshold. Our analysis suggests that the measurement of the invariant mass…
The energy dependence of the reactions pp -> p Lambda K+ and pp -> p Sigma0 K+ and the ratio R(Lambda/Sigma0} is studied in a constituent quark-gluon model, including the excitation of the baryon resonances N*(1650), N*(1710) and N*(1720)…
We study the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance with $I(J^{P})=0(1/2^{-}) $ in the context of the pentaquark hypothesis in the nuclear medium. For the investigation of the influence of the nuclear medium on the physical parameters of…

We have measured the angular correlation of the pair nucleons np and nn emitted from the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) of ^{12}_{Lambda}C produced via the (pi^+,K^+) reaction in coincidence measurement. The Lambda p -> np and Lambda n -> nn…
The reactions $pp\to p\Lambda K^+$ and $pp\to p\Sigma^0K^+$ are studied near their thresholds. The strangeness production process is described by the $\pi$- and $K$ exchange mechanisms. Effects from the final state interaction in the…
The hyperon-nucleon interaction is investigated through the final-state interaction in the $K^-d\to\pi^-\Lambda p$ reaction. We focus on the $\Lambda N$-$\Sigma N$ coupled-channel interaction, which produces characteristic structures around…

Photoproduction of the $\Lambda^*(1520)$ resonance of spin-parity ${3\over2}^-$ off the proton target is investigated within the Regge framework where the $t$-channel reggeization is applied for the $K(494)+K^*(892)+K_2^*(1430)$ exchanges…
Four-body Faddeev-Yakubovsky calculations for Lambda-Lambda-p-n do not produce a bound state for Lambda-Lambda hydrogen 4, although suitably defined three-body Faddeev calculations for Lambda-Lambda-d produce a 1+ bound state for…
Using a phenomenological \={K}N potential which reproduces $\Lambda$(1405) as an I=0 bound state of \={K}N, we investigated deeply bound kaonic nuclei, ppnK$^-$ and $^8$BeK$^-$, with the method of Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics. Our…
