We have observed a "$K^-pp$"-like structure in the $d(\pi^+,K^+)$ reaction at 1.69 GeV/$c$. In this reaction $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon resonance is expected to be produced as a doorway to form the $K^-pp$ through the $\Lambda^*p\rightarrow…

We first determine the Lambda-N S-wave phase shifts so as to reproduce the experimental Lambda separation energies of A=3, 4 Lambda-hypernuclei, and then construct three phase-equivalent Lambda-N potentials with different central repulsion.…

The $\Lambda(1405)$ production in p+p collisions at 3.5 GeV and K$^-$-induced reactions is discussed. The shift of the measured spectral function of the $\Lambda(1405)$ in p+p reactions does not match either theoretical calculations for p+p…

Regarding the reaction $p \bar{p} \to \Lambda \bar{\Lambda}$, we provide a dynamical explanation focusing on its total and differential cross section based on the effective Lagrangian approach. Incorporating the $t$-channel exchange of the…

The hyperon-nucleon interaction with the strangeness $S=-1$ region is complicated and difficult to investigate because its flavor sector involves all the irreducible representation except the flavor singlet and has the worst signal-to-noise…
