Heavy-ion collisions offer a unique way to study hyperon-nucleon ($Y$-$N$) interactions through two-particle momentum correlations, which reveal the source's space-time structure and the effects of the final state interactions. Correlations…
We study the formation of single- and double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei in antiproton-induced reactions relevant for the forthcoming PANDA experiment at FAIR. We use the Giessen Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (GiBUU) transport model with…
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…
We consider 3 types of processes pertinent to the phenomenology of an H di-baryon: conversion of two $\Lambda$'s in a doubly-strange hypernucleus to an H, decay of the H to two baryons, and -- if the H is light enough -- conversion of two…
The $^7$Li(p,n)$^7$Be reaction is widely used as neutron source for neutron induced reaction cross section measurements, and for $^7$Be radioactive source production. There are two prominent structures in the excitation function, a narrow…
The kinematics of two-neutron emission following the $\beta$-decay of $^{11}$Li was investigated for the first time by detecting the two neutrons in coincidence and by measuring their angle and energy. An array of liquid-scintillator…
The significance of $\Lambda\Lambda$-$\Xi$N coupling in double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei has been studied. The Pauli suppression effect due to this coupling in $^6_{\Lambda\Lambda}$He has been found to be 0.43 MeV for the coupling strength of…
A Skyrme-type effective potential is determined to describe the interaction between $\Lambda$ hyperons in nuclear medium. Experimental data of the binding energies of the double-$\Lambda$ ($\Lambda\Lambda$) nuclei with mass numbers…
The cluster $^4\rm He+\Lambda+\rm n$ model is applied to describe the $^6_\Lambda$He hypernucleus. The consideration is based on the configuration space Faddeev equations for a system of non-identical particles. A set of the pair potentials…
The fusion of $\alpha$ and $^8$Be to produce a $^{12}$C nucleus is a crucial process in nucleosynthesis. In the laboratory, this process can only be studied theoretically as a $^8$Be target or projectile cannot be prepared experimentally.…
The cross section for the reaction $p+^6\text{Li}\to\eta+^7\text{Be}$ was measured at an excess energy of 11.28 MeV above threshold by detecting the recoiling $^7$Be nuclei. A dedicated set of focal plane detectors was built for the…
An experimental study of the 16O(e,e'K^+)16N_Lambda reaction has been performed at Jefferson Lab. A thin film of falling water was used as a target. This permitted a simultaneous measurement of the p(e,e'K^+)Lambda,Sigma_0 exclusive…
The low-lying level structure of the unbound neutron-rich nucleus $^{13}$Be has been investigated via breakup on a carbon target of secondary beams of $^{14,15}$B at 35 MeV/nucleon. The coincident detection of the beam velocity $^{12}$Be…
We searched for the bound state of the neutron-rich $\Lambda$-hypernucleus ${}^{6}_{\Lambda}$H, using the ${}^{6}$Li($\pi^{-}, K^{+}$)X double charge-exchange reaction at a $\pi^{-}$ beam momentum of 1.2 GeV/c at J-PARC. A total of $1.4…
A new search for production of correlated e+e- pairs in the alpha decay of 241Am has been carried out deep underground at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory of the I.N.F.N. by using pairs of NaI(Tl) detectors of the DAMA/LIBRA set-up. The…
The possibility of recording fragmentation events of relativistic nuclei in a nuclear emulsion, discovered back in the pioneering era of cosmic ray physics, opens up the prospect of using this method to study extremely cold ensembles of H…
The stiff equation of state (EoS) giving the neutron-star mass of $2M_{\odot}$ suggests the existence of strongly repulsive many-body effect (MBE) not only in nucleon channels but also in hyperonic ones. As a specific model for MBE, the…
$\Lambda^+_c$- and $\Lambda_b$-hypernuclei are studied in the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model. Comparisons are made with the results for $\Lambda$-hypernuclei studied in the same model previously. Although the scalar and vector potentials…

We have observed a "$K^-pp$"-like structure in the $d(\pi^+,K^+)$ reaction at 1.69 GeV/$c$. In this reaction $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon resonance is expected to be produced as a doorway to form the $K^-pp$ through the $\Lambda^*p\rightarrow…
