We calculate the S and P wave phase shifts in $\Lambda - \pi$ scattering at the $\Xi$ mass using the full relativistic $SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R$ chiral perturbation theory. We get small phase shifts similar to previous calculations using $…

We theoretically investigate Lambda production via a (K-, pi-) reaction on a 6Li target, using the distorted-wave impulse approximation (DWIA) with a Fermi-averaged K-n --> pi-Lambda amplitude. We calculate Lambda production spectra using…

Having in mind its future extension for theoretical investigations related to charmed nuclei, we develop a relativistic formalism for the nonmesonic weak decay of single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei in the framework of the independent-particle…

A new analysis of S-wave production amplitudes for the reaction $\pi^- p_{\uparrow} \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^- n$ on a transversely polarized target is performed. It is based on the results obtained by the CERN-Cracow -Munich collaboration in…

We have measured the weak decay asymmetry parameters ($\aLC $) for two \LC\ decay modes. Our measurements are $\aLC = -0.94^{+0.21+0.12}_{-0.06-0.06} $ for the decay mode $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Lambda\pi^+ $ and $\aLC = -0.45\pm 0.31 \pm 0.06$…

Compared in this work are a few sets of results, obtained from the pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) data at low energy (pion laboratory kinetic energy up to $100$ MeV) on the basis of the modelling of the $s$- and $p$-wave $K$-matrix elements (or of…

The weak decays of hyperons and hypernuclei are studied from the chiral symmetry viewpoint. The soft pion relations are useful in understanding the isospin properties of the weak hyperon decays. Recent development on the short-range part of…

The seniority scheme has been shown to be extremely useful for the classification of nuclear states in semi-magic nuclei. The neutron-proton ($np$) correlation breaks the seniority symmetry in a major way. As a result, the corresponding…

In this work, we systematically study the OZI-allowed two-body strong decay properties of $1P$- and $1D$-wave $\Sigma_c$ baryons within the $j $-$j$ coupling scheme in the framework of the quark pair creation model. For a comparison, we…

We study the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) $\Lambda N \to nN$ of the ${}^{12}_{\Lambda} C$ hypernucleus induced by the nucleon $N=n,p$ with transition rate $\Gamma_N$. The nuclear process is described by the interplay of two models; one…

The separation between single particle levels in nuclei plays the dominant role in determining the location of the neutron drip line. The separation also provides a test of current crossed shell model interactions if the experimental data…

We study nonleptonic Lambda_b -> Lambda_c pi, Sigma_c pi and Sigma_c^* pi decays in the limit m_b, m_c, E_pi >> Lambda_{QCD} using the soft-collinear effective theory. Here Sigma_c = Sigma_c(2455) and Sigma_c^* = Sigma_c(2520). At leading…

A recent analysis of data on the two photon production of the $\eta_c$ and its decay to $K(K\pi)$ has determined the $K\pi$ $S$-wave amplitude in a "model-independent" way assuming primarily that the additional kaon is a spectator in this…

We report on a search for Lambda_b -> p pi- and Lambda_b -> p K- (and charge conjugate) decays in p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV using 193 pb-1 of data collected by CDFII experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Data were…

We construct an effective non-relativistic quantum field theory that describes bound states of pi+ pi- pairs and their hadronic decays. We then derive a general expression for the lifetime of the ground state at next-to-leading order in…

Empirical data on the spectra of light hypernuclei, especially the data from recent gamma-ray experiments, is used to constrain the parameters which govern the p(nucleon)s(Lambda) and p(nucleon)p(Lambda) two-body matrix elements that enter…

One of the main open problems in the physics of Lambda-hypernuclei is the lack of a sound theoretical interpretation of the large experimental values for the ratio Gn/Gp=G(Lambda n -> nn)/G(Lambda p -> np). To approach the problem, we have…
