We calculate the binding energy of two $\Lambda$ hyperons bound to a nuclear core within the relativistic mean field theory. The starting point is a two-body relativistic equation of the Breit type suggested by the RMFT, and corrected for…

A major source of uncertainty in modeling the strangeness-rich interiors of neutron stars arises from the poorly constrained two-body and three-body interactions among hyperons and nucleons. We perform a comprehensive Bayesian analysis of…

We extend our Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (SHF) approach, which was used earlier to describe successfully the single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei, to investigate the binding and the $\Lambda \Lambda$ bond energies of the double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei. The…

The interaction between $\Lambda_c$ and a nucleon ($N$) is investigated by employing the HAL QCD method in the (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD on a $(2.9~\mathrm{fm})^3$ volume at $m_\pi \simeq 410,~570,~700$ MeV. We study the central potential in…

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…
