Five $\Xi^- p\to \Lambda\Lambda$ two-body capture events in $^{12}$C and $^{14}$N emulsion nuclei, in which a pair of single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei is formed and identified by their weak decay, have been observed in $(K^-,K^+)$ emulsion…
We study theoretically the $BD\bar{D}$ and $BDD$ systems to see if they allow for possible bound or resonant states. The three-body interaction is evaluated implementing the Fixed Center Approximation to the Faddeev equations which…
We point out a simplicity that arises when we use an interaction in which only an energy with odd J is non-zero. The emphasis is on J=J_{\text{max}} and in particular J=9^{+} in the g_{9/2} shell. It is noted that high overlaps can be…
Bound-systems of $\Xi^-$--$^{14}_{}{\rm N}$ are studied via $\Xi^-$ capture at rest followed by emission of a twin single-$\Lambda$ hypernucleus in the emulsion detectors. Two events forming extremely deep $\Xi^-$ bound states were obtained…
The properties of strange hadronic matter are studied in the context of the modified quark-meson coupling model using two substantially different sets of hyperon-hyperon ($YY$) interactions. The first set is based on the Nijmegen hard core…
We have investigated the possible existence of a quasi-bound state for the \Sigma -\Sigma -\alpha system in the framework of Faddeev calculations. We are particularly interested in the state of total iso-spin T=2, since for an inert \alpha…
Recent work on using density dependent $\Lambda$-nuclear optical potentials in calculations of $\Lambda$-hypernuclear binding energies is reviewed. It is found that all known $\Lambda$ binding energies in the mass range $16 \leq A \leq 208$…
The $\Xi N$ interaction is investigated in the quark mean-field (QMF) model based on recent observables of the $\Xi^-+^{14}\rm{N}$ ($_{\Xi^-}^{15}\rm{C}$) system. The experimental data about the binding energy of $1p$-state $\Xi^-$ hyperon…
Coupled-channel three-body calculations of an $I=1/2$, $J^{\pi}=0^-$ $\bar{K}NN$ quasi-bound state in the $\bar{K}NN - \pi \Sigma N$ system were performed and the dependence of the resulting three-body energy on the two-body $\bar{K}N - \pi…
Equivalent interactions in a low-momentum space for the $\Lambda N$, $\Sigma N$ and $\Xi N$ interactions are calculated, using the SU$_6$ quark model potential as well as the Nijmegen OBEP model as the input bare interaction. Because the…
Recent experiments on production of Lambda-Lambda hypernuclei have renewed interest in extracting the Lambda-Lambda interaction from the few events identified since the inception of this field forty years ago. Few-body calculations relating…
A K \bar{K} N system with I=1/2 and J^P=1/2^+ is investigated with non-relativistic three-body calculations by using effective \bar K N, K \bar K and KN interactions. The \bar K N interaction describes the Lambda(1405) as a \bar K N…
The three-neutron ($3n$) system is studied by numerical calculations with the Faddeev three-body formalism for a realistic nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential. A response function for the transition from ${}^3\mathrm{H}$ to $3n$ continuum states…
Our current knowledge of the baryon--baryon interaction suggests that the dineutron $(n,n)$ and its strange analogue $(n,\Lambda)$ are unstable. In contrast, the situation is more favorable for the strange three-body system $(n,n,\Lambda)$,…
The Faddeev equations for the $\Xi NN$ bound-state problem are solved where the three $S$=$-2$ baryon-baryon interactions of J\"ulich-Bonn-M\"unchen chiral EFT, HAL QCD and Nijmegen ESC08c are used. The $T$-matrix $T_{\Xi N, \Xi N}$…
In an emulsion-counter hybrid experiment performed at J-PARC, a $\Xi^-$ absorption event was observed which decayed into twin single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei. Kinematic calculations enabled a unique identification of the reaction process as…
We point out a simplicity that arises when we use an interaction in which only an energy with odd J is non-zero. The emphasis is on J= J_{max} and in particular J=9+ in the g_{9/2} shell. It is noted that high overlaps can be deceptive. In…
Motivated by recent HAL QCD simulations of the $\phi N$ interaction in the $^4S_{3/2}$ channel and its modification in the $^2S_{1/2}$ channel, we develop a first-principles few-body framework that embeds these potentials into…
The $\Lambda$ and neutron decay widths of $\Xi$ hypernuclear states, based on calculated $\Xi N \to \lala$ mixing amplitudes, are estimated. The widths which result from using the Nijmegen Model D interaction are sufficiently small, of…
We study the coupled $\Lambda\Lambda nn-\Xi^- pnn$ system to check whether the inclusion of channel coupling is able to bind the $\Lambda\Lambda nn$ system. We use a separable potential three-body model of the coupled $\Lambda\Lambda nn -…
