Hypernuclei are bound states of neutrons, protons and one or two hyperons, thus extending the nuclear landscape to a third dimension. They also encode information about the baryon-baryon and three-baryon interactions. Here, we review recent…
A depth of $D_{\Lambda}\approx -28$ MeV for the $\Lambda$-nucleus potential was confirmed in 1988 by studying $\Lambda$ binding energies deduced from $(\pi^+,K^+)$ spectra measured across the periodic table. Modern two-body hyperon-nucleon…
Recent studies have shown that concepts of effective field theory such as naturalness can be profitably applied to relativistic mean-field models of nuclei. Here the analysis by Friar, Madland, and Lynn of naturalness in a relativistic…

Relativistic mean field calculations of multi-$\bar{K}$ hypernuclei are performed by adding $K^-$ mesons to particle-stable configurations of nucleons, $\Lambda$ and $\Xi$ hyperons. For a given hypernuclear core, the calculated $\bar{K}$…
A minimally constructed $\Lambda$-nucleus density-dependent optical potential is used to calculate binding energies of observed $1s_{\Lambda}$, $1p_{\Lambda}$ states across the periodic table, leading to a repulsive $\Lambda NN$…
Simple generic aspects of nuclear pairing in homogeneous medium as well as in finite nuclei are discussed. It is argued that low-energy nuclear structure is not sensitive enough to resolve fine details of nuclear nucleon-nucleon (NN)…
The non-mesonic weak decay of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei is studied within a microscopic diagrammatic approach which includes, for the first time, the effect or the $\Delta$-baryon resonance. We adopt a nuclear matter formalism extended to…

We use the self-consistent mean-field theory to discuss the ground state and decay properties of $\Lambda$ hypernuclei. We first discuss the deformation of $\Lambda$ hypernuclei using the relativistic mean-field (RMF) approach. We show…
We predict the energy per baryon in nuclear matter with non-zero fraction of $\Lambda$ hyperons. We include Dirac effects on the nucleons as well as the $\Lambda$ and describe how the latter is implemented. We use the nucleon-hyperon…
