We review the status as regards the existence of three- and four-body bound states made of neutrons and $\Lambda$ hyperons. For interesting cases, the coupling to neutral baryonic systems made of charged particles of different strangeness…
We review our recent work about the stability of strange few-body systems containing $N$'s, $\Lambda$'s, and $\Xi$'s. We make use of local central Yukawa-type Malfliet-Tjon interactions reproducing the low-energy parameters and phase shifts…
We have solved for the first time the Faddeev equations for the bound state problem of the coupled $\Lambda\Lambda N$--$\Xi NN$ system to study whether an hypertriton with strangeness -2 may exist or not. We make use of the interactions…
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 -…
Arguments in favor of a light $\Xi NN$ hypernucleus with $(I)J^P=(3/2)1/2^+$ are presented, within the uncertainties of our knowledge of the baryon-baryon strangeness $-2$ interactions. If bound, this $\Xi NN$ state, being decoupled from…
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…
We extend the study of a JP=2+, I=3/2 pion-Lambda-nucleon quasibound state [Phys. Rev. D 78, 014013 (2008)] by solving nonrelativistic Faddeev equations, using 3S1-3D1, Lambda N - Sigma N coupled channels Chiral Quark Model local…
A potential model for the interaction between a charmed baryon ($\Lambda_c$, $\Sigma_c$, and $\Sigma_c^*$) and the nucleon ($N$) is constructed. The model contains a long-range meson ($\pi$ and $\sigma$) exchange part and a short-distance…
We report our recent work on a hadronic molecule state of the KbarKN system with I=1/2 and J^P=1/2^+. We assume that the Lambda(1405) resonance and the scalar mesons, f_{0}(980), a_{0}(980), are reproduced as quasi-bound states of KbarN and…
JLab has recently found indications of the possible existence of a $\Sigma NN$ resonance at $(3.14 \pm 0.84) - i (2.28 \pm 1.2)$ MeV. In the past, using models that exploit symmetries between the two-baryon sector with and without…
We develop the formalism to study the hyperon-nucleon interaction potential within the bound state approach to the SU(3) Skyrme model. The general framework is illustrated by applying it to the diagonal $\Lambda N$ potential. The central,…
Four-body Faddeev-Yakubovsky calculations for Lambda-Lambda-p-n do not produce a bound state for Lambda-Lambda hydrogen 4, although suitably defined three-body Faddeev calculations for Lambda-Lambda-d produce a 1+ bound state for…
The status of the light hypernuclei is reviewed, and discussed with models based either on the Nijmegen-RIKEN baryon--baryon interaction or on recent studies using chiral effective field theory. The latter suggests a significantly shorter…
We have searched for bound states in the pion-Lambda-nucleon system by solving the nonrelativistic Faddeev equations, as well as a relativistic version, with input separable pion-nucleon, pion-Lambda, and Lambda-nucleon interactions. A…
Baryons, as three-quark bound states, require a covariant treatment in the intermediate-energy regime where perturbative QCD is no longer applicable and where nonperturbative correlations dominate. This article reformulates the content of…
The paper is devoted to the $\bar{K}NNN$ system, which is an exotic system consisting of an antikaon and three nucleons. Dynamically exact four-body Faddeev-type equations were solved and characteristics of the quasi-bound state in the…
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 $T_{\Xi N, \Xi N}$…
Possible bound and resonant states of the hypernuclear systems $\Lambda nn$ and $\Lambda\Lambda n$ are sought as zeros of the corresponding three-body Jost functions calculated within the framework of the hyperspherical approach with local…
Within the framework of the Faddeev formalism in configuration space, we investigate bound states in the $\phi NN$ system with total isospin $T=0$ and $T=1$. The recently proposed lattice HAL QCD $\phi N$ potential in the $^{4}S_{3/2}$…
The HypHI Collaboration at GSI argued recently for a (Lambda-n-n) bound state from the observation of its two-body (t + pi-) weak-decay mode. We derive constraints from several hypernuclear systems, in particular from the A=4 hypernuclei…
