Strange baryons have long been known to exhibit a leading particle effect. A recent comparison of $\Xi^-$ production in $\pi^-$, $n$, and $\Sigma^-$ interactions with nuclei show this effect clearly. These data are supplemented by earlier…
In this work we investigate medium modifications to the interference pattern between initial and final state radiation. We compute single gluon production off a highly energetic parton that undergoes a hard scattering and subsequently…
We calculate the $\Lambda \Lambda \to YN$ transition rate of ${^{\phantom{\Lambda}6}_{\Lambda \Lambda}}$He by the hybrid picture, the $\pi$ and $K$ exchanges plus the direct quark processes. It is found that the hyperon-induced decay is…
We explore the quantum dynamics of heteronuclear atomic collisions in waveguides and demonstrate the existence of a novel mechanism for the resonant formation of polar molecules. The molecular formation probabilities can be tuned by…
Proper interpretation of past, current, and future data on lepton-nucleus reactions requires a clear separation between quantum electrodynamics (QED) and strong interaction effects inside the nucleus. First studies of QED in-medium lepton…
We investigate the dynamics of dilute systems composed of nucleons and light clusters within a linear response approach, taking into account the in-medium Mott effects on cluster appearance, through a density-dependent momentum cut-off. We…
Different scenarios for the creation of constituent mass in the hadron formation process are discussed. Effects of these may be observable in hadron momentum spectra.
We investigate the possibility that neutrinos form superfluid-type condensates in background cosmological densities. Such condensates could give rise to small neutrino masses and splittings, as well as an important contribution, perhaps, to…
A study of the yields of strange particles produced in heavy-ion and elementary collisions is presented using preliminary results from the STAR experiment at RHIC. The strange particle production rates, relative to those of p+p, have been…
The question of the origin of hadron masses is one major issue in the understanding of the strong interaction. The challenge is addressed by searching for indications of in-medium modifications of hadron properties and studying hadrons in…

Using a gauged flavor SU(3)-invariant hadronic Lagrangian, we calculate the cross sections for the strangeness-exchange reactions YY to N\Xi (Y=\Lambda, \Sigma) in the Born approximation. These cross sections are then used in the…
A novel approach that allows access to long-sought information on the Hyperon-Nucleon (YN) interaction was developed by producing a hyperon beam within a few-body nuclear system, and studying final-state interactions. The determination of…
Properties of hypernuclei $_{\Lambda \Lambda}^5$H and $_{\Lambda \Lambda }^5$He are studied in a two-channel approach with explicit treatment of coupling of channels ^3\text{Z}+\Lambda+\Lambda and \alpha+\Xi. Diagonal \Lambda\Lambda and…
The production of strange particles in a hot medium as produced in collisions of heavy ions is considered one of the most important signals for the phase transition to a quark-gluon plasma. In the first part of this lecture, the theoretical…
Single-particle potentials in Hartree-Fock approximation for different hyperon-nucleon (YN) channels are calculated in the framework of the effective low-momentum YN interaction V_lowk. In contrast to the nucleon-nucleon interaction, the…

We study the medium modifications of baryon properties in nuclear many-body systems, especially in $\Lambda$ hypernuclei. The nucleon and the $\Lambda$ hyperon are described in the Friedberg-Lee model as nontopological solitons which…
