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…
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…
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…
The Strangeness ${\cal S}=-2$ J-PARC E07 emulsion experiment published recently two new $\Xi^-$--$^{14}$N capture events, IRRAWADDY and IBUKI, identified by observing weak-decay sequences of pairs of single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei and…
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…
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 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…
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…
Motivated by the recently observed hypernucleus (Kiso event) $^{15}_{\Xi}$C ($^{14}$N$+\Xi^-$), we identify the state of this system theoretically within the framework of the relativistic-mean-field and Skyrme-Hartree-Fock models. The $\Xi…
I examined a phenomenological Nijmegen and a first principles HAL QCD $\Xi N$ potentials to study $\alpha\Xi$ ineractions. A Woods-Saxon type form for $\alpha\Xi$ potential in the single-folding potential approach is derived by using the…
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…
Experimental evidence exists that the $\Xi$-nucleus interaction is attractive. We search for $NN\Xi$ and $NNN\Xi$ bound systems on the basis of the AV8 $NN$ potential combined with either a phenomenological Nijmegen $\Xi N$ potential or a…
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…
We investigate within a quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, the structure of the bound $\Xi^-$ hypernucleus $^{15}{\!\!\!_{\Xi^-}}$C ($^{14}$N + $\Xi^-$), which has been observed in a recent analysis of the KEK-E373 experiment. In the QMC…
Properties of the baryon-baryon interactions in the strangeness $S=-2$ sector of chiral effective field theory at the next-to-leading order (NLO) level are explored by calculating $\Xi$ single-particle potentials in symmetric nuclear…

The $(K^-,K^+)$ $\Xi^-$ production inclusive spectrum is reinvestigated in view of the very weak $\Xi$-nucleus potential predicted by microscopic calculations with the SU$_6$ quark-model baryon-baryon interaction. The inclusive spectrum is…
