Among the light baryons, the $J^\pi = \frac{1}{2}^-$ $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon is an important special case as it sits just below the $N\bar{K}$ threshold and decays almost exclusively to $\Sigma\pi$. Some long-standing hypotheses for…
Differential cross sections and hyperon polarizations have been measured for $\bar{K}^0 n$, $\pi^0 \Lambda$, and $\pi^0 \Sigma^0$ production in $K^- p$ interactions at eight $K^-$ momenta between 514 and 750 MeV/$c$. The experiment detected…

The $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0 \Lambda$ and $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi \Sigma $ reactions are studied in the kinematic region where the $\pi^0 \Lambda$(1116) and $\pi\Sigma$(1192) pairs originate dominantly from the decay of the $\Sigma$(1385) and…
Early data on $K^-$ induced reactions off protons are collected and used in a coupled-channel partial wave analysis (PWA). Data which had been published in the form of Legendre coefficients are included in the PWA. In a {\it primary} fit…
The capture of K$^-$ mesons on nucleons bound in nuclei offer a chance to study the $\Sigma \pi$ pairs below the kinematic threshold of the $\bar{\mathrm{K}}$N systems. Various hyperon-pion charged combination are presently under…
A determination of the spin and parity of the $\Lambda(1405)$ is presented using photoproduction data from the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab. The reaction $\gamma + p \to K^+ + \Lambda(1405)$ is analyzed in the decay channel $\Lambda(1405)…
