All five KEK and J-PARC two-body $\Xi^-$+$^A$Z $\to$ $^{A'}_{\Lambda}$Z'+$^{A''}_{\Lambda}$Z'' capture events in light emulsion nuclei, including KISO and IBUKI in $^{14}$N, are consistent with Coulomb-assisted $1p_{\Xi^-}$ nuclear states.…
We recently showed that all five KEK and J-PARC uniquely assigned two-body $\Xi^-$+${^A}$Z$\to{_{\Lambda}^{A'}}$Z'+${_{\Lambda}^{A''}}$Z'' capture events in CNO light emulsion nuclei are consistent with Coulomb-assisted $1p_{\Xi^-}$ nuclear…
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…
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…
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…
J-PARC E05 reported recently a hint of a $\Xi^--{^{11}{\rm B}}$ nuclear state in the ${^{12}}{\rm C}(K^-,K^+){^{12}_{\Xi}}{\rm Be}$ spectrum, bound by $B_{\Xi^-}=8.9\pm 1.4 {^{+3.8}_{-3.1}}$ MeV. Using a density-dependent $\Xi$-nuclear…
The recent observation of the deeply bound \Xi - hypernucleus ^15_\Xi^-C through the IRRAWADDY and KINKA events provided a crucial benchmark for determining the \Xi-nucleus interaction. This work aims to constrain the depth of this…
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…
We study the energy spectra of $\Xi$ hypernuclei $^{15}_{\Xi}$C and $^{12}_{\Xi}$Be with a relativistic mean field (RMF) model with meson exchange $\Xi N$ interactions. The RMF parameters are optimized to reproduce the average energy of…
We question the compatibility of recent ${\cal S}=-2$ hypernuclear assignments of J-PARC E07 $\Xi^-$-capture emulsion events with assignments deduced from other experiments.
A double-$\Lambda$ hypernucleus, ${}_{\Lambda\Lambda}\mathrm{Be}$, was observed by the J-PARC E07 collaboration in nuclear emulsions tagged by the $(K^{-},K^{+})$ reaction. This event was interpreted as a production and decay of $…
We investigate the existence of bound $\Xi$ \break states in systems with $A=4-7$ baryons using the Jacobi NCSM approach in combination with chiral NN and $\Xi$N interactions. We find three shallow bound states for the NNN$\Xi$ system (with…
The $\Xi$ single-particle potential obtained in nuclear matter with the next-to-leading order baryon-baryon interactions in chiral effective field theory is applied to finite nuclei by an improved local-density approximation method. As a…

The single-$\Xi^-$ hypernuclei are studied using a quark mean field model. At the quark level, the $\Xi^-$ hyperon is composed of one $d$ quark and two $s$ quarks, which are confined by the harmonic oscillator potentials. In the case of…
The recent update of the strangeness $-2$ ESC08c Nijmegen potential incorporating the NAGARA and KISO events predicts a $\Xi N$ bound state, $D^*$, in the $^3S_1 (I=1)$ channel. We study if the existence of this two-body bound state could…
Recent experiments at Jefferson Laboratory and potential new facilities at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) make it evident that the discovery of a spin-singlet S-wave di-cascade bound state of two cascade (Xi)…

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…
MAXI J1807+132 is a low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) first detected in outburst in 2017. Observations during the 2017 outburst did not allow for an unambiguous identification of the nature of the compact object. MAXI J1807+132 was detected in…
