A recent suggestion [PLB 774 (2017) 522] that purely-$\Lambda^{\ast}(1405)$ nuclei provide the absolute minimum energy in charge-neutral baryon matter for baryon-number $A\gtrsim 8$, is tested within RMF calculations. A broad range of…

We calculate the structure of three-body hypernuclei with $S=-1$ using pionless effective field theory at leading order in the isospin $I=0$ and $I=1$ sectors. In both sectors, three-body hypernuclei arise naturally from the Efimov effect…

We compute three-body nuclear forces at short distances by using the nuclear matrix model of holographic QCD proposed in our previous paper with P. Yi. We find that the three-body forces at short distances are repulsive for (a) aligned…
We report the recent progress in relativistic mean-field (RMF) and beyond approaches for the low-energy structure of deformed hypernuclei. We show that the $\Lambda$ hyperon with orbital angular momentum $\ell=0$ (or $\ell>1$) generally…
We develop a new relativistic mean field (RMF) model including explicit three-body couplings and apply it to hyperonic systems and neutron star matter. The recent observation of the massive mass neutron star has given us a puzzle; when…
