Nonmesonic weak decays of the A=4, and 5 hypernuclei are studied. The short range parts of the hyperon-nucleon weak interactions are described by the direct quark (DQ) weak transition potential, while the longer range interactions are given…
The nonmesonic weak decay width of $^{12}_{\Lambda}C$ hypernucleus has been evaluated within a nuclear matter formalism, using the local density approximation. In addition to the one-body induced decay $(\Lambda N \to n N)$, it has been…
The nonleptonic weak $|\Delta S|=1$ $\Lambda N$ interaction, responsible for the dominant, nonmesonic decay of all but the lightest hypernuclei, is studied in the framework of an effective field theory. The long-range physics is described…
We study the non-mesonic weak decay of the doubly-strange hypernucleus $^{\Lambda\Lambda}_6$He within a model which considers the exchange of pseudoscalar and vector mesons. Special attention is paid into quantifying the strong interaction…
Because of Pauli suppression effects the $N\pi$ decay of the free $\Lambda$ is not of importance in hypernuclei with $A\geq 10$. Rather the decay of such hypernuclei proceeds via the nucleon-stimulated mode $\Lambda N\rightarrow NN$,…
We review the mechanism of weak decay of hypernuclei, with emphasis on the non-mesonic decay channels. Various theoretical approaches are discussed and the results are compared with the available experimental data.
Previous studies of proton and neutron spectra from Non-Mesonic Weak Decay of eight Lambda-Hypernuclei (A = 5-16) have been revisited. New values of the ratio of the two-nucleon and the one-proton induced decay widths, Gamma_2N/Gamma_p, are…
The nonmesonic decay of the hypertriton is calculated based on a hypertriton wavefunction and 3N scattering states, which are rigorous solutions of 3-body Faddeev equations using realistic NN and hyperon-nucleon interactions. The…
We measured the lifetime and the mesonic and non-mesonic decay rates of the 4He-Lambda hypernucleus. The hypernuclei were created using a 750 MeV/c momentum K- beam on a liquid 4He target by the reaction 4He(K-,pi-)4He-Lambda. The…
By employing recent data on non-mesonic decay of s-shell Lambda-hypernuclei we study, within the phenomenological model of Block and Dalitz, the validity of the Delta I=1/2 rule in the Lambda N--> NN process. Due to the low experimental…
We consider the $\Lambda N\to NN$ weak transition, responsible for a large fraction of the non-mesonic weak decay of hypernuclei. We follow on the previously derived effective field theory and compute the next-to-leading one-loop…
The weak $\Lambda N\to NN$ transition is studied in the valence quark model approach. The quark component of the two baryon system is described in the quark cluster model and the weak transition potential is calculated by evaluating the…
In the framework of the two-group configuration model we obtain formulas for the reduced transition rates for beta- and gamma-transitions in even-even, odd-odd, even-odd, and odd-even nuclei. We explored dependencies of the transition rates…
The charmed $ \Lambda_{c}^{+} $ hypernuclei are investigated within the framework of the density-dependent relativistic mean-field (DDRMF) theory. Starting from the empirical hyperon potential in symmetric nuclear matter, obtained through…
By describing strong interactions between hadrons via a relativistic supermultiplet scheme and regarding weak interactions as a perturbation thereof, we derive expressions for nonleptonic weak decay amplitudes in terms of constituent quark…
Hypernuclei are convenient laboratory to study the baryon-baryon weak interaction and associated effective Hamiltonian. The strangeness changing process, in which a Lambda hyperon converts to a neutron with a release up to 176 MeV, provides…
In this work, we conduct a study on the properties of single-{\Lambda} hypernuclei in the relativistic mean-field theory with the parameter set FSU, where the isoscalar-isovector coupling has been included to soften the symmetry energy. In…
We extend the recently developed Jacobi no-core shell model to hypernuclei. Based on the coefficients of fractional parentage for ordinary nuclei, we define a basis where the hyperon is the spectator particle. We then formulate transition…
