One of the main open problems in the physics of Lambda-hypernuclei is the lack of a sound theoretical interpretation of the large experimental values for the ratio Gn/Gp=G(Lambda n -> nn)/G(Lambda p -> np). To approach the problem, we have…
We present a model for the $\gamma^\ast N \to N^\ast$ helicity amplitudes, where $N$ is the nucleon and $N^\ast$ is a negative parity nucleon excitation, member of the $SU(6)$-multiplet $[70,1^-]$. The model combines the results from the…
