Using $(1.0087\pm0.0044)\times10^{10}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, the reactions $\Sigma^{+}n\rightarrow\Lambda p$ and $\Sigma^{+}n\rightarrow\Sigma^{0}p$ are studied, where the…
COSY with a maximum beam momentum of ~3.65 GeV/c allows the production of ground state (Lambda and Sigma) and excited hyperons (Lambda(1405), Sigma(1385) and Lambda(1520)) in elementary NN interactions. The existing data base in this field…
The hyperon-hyperon and hyperon-nucleon interactions are important in search for exotic hadrons such dibaryon as a bound state of two baryons. $\Lambda$-$\Lambda$ correlation has been measured in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ =…
We study for the first time the $p\Sigma^-\to K^-d$ and $K^-d\to p\Sigma^-$ reactions close to threshold and show that they are driven by a triangle mechanism, with the $\Lambda(1405)$, a proton and a neutron as intermediate states, which…
The interactions of kaons (K) and antikaons ($\mathrm{\overline{K}}$) with few nucleons (N) were studied so far using kaonic atom data and measurements of kaon production and interaction yields in nuclei. Some details of the three-body KNN…

Measurements of identified particles over a broad $p_T$ range may provide strong evidence for the existence of a thermalized partonic state in heavy-ion collisions (\textit{i.e.} a quark-gluon plasma). Of particular interest are the…

The search of nuclear bound states of anti-K in few-body nuclear systems such as K-pp, can be extended from the nuclear medium to the vacuum, using the glue-rich Y(1S) decays at B-factories. Here the possibility for such a measurement at…

New results concerning the production of neutral strange particles, $K^0$ and $\Lambda$ in Ni + Ni collisions at 1.93$A$ GeV, measured with the FOPI detector at GSI-Darmstadt, are presented. Rapidity density distributions and Boltzmann…
We have found theoretically that the elementary process, p + p to K+ + Lambda(1405) + p, which occurs in a short impact parameter (around 0.2 fm) and with a large momentum transfer (Q ~ 1.6 GeV/c), leads to unusually large self-trapping of…

A $\Sigma^*$ resonance with spin-parity $J^P = 1/2^-$ and mass in the vicinity of the $\bar{K}N$ threshold has been predicted in the unitary chiral approach and inferred from the analysis of CLAS data on the $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0…
