We measured the lifetime and the mesonic and non-mesonic decay rates of the 4He-Lambda hypernucleus. The hypernuclei were created using a 750 MeV/c momentum K- beam on a liquid 4He target by the reaction 4He(K-,pi-)4He-Lambda. The…
The unusual ratio of the neutron and proton transition matrix elements, $M_n/M_p$, may indicate the exotic feature of decoupled neutron and proton density distributions. In this contribution we show that these transition matrix elements are…
I discuss the role of strong final state interactions (FSI) in K \to 2\pi decays. In this case strong FSI effects can be resummed [1,2] by solving the Omn\`es problem for K\to 2\pi amplitudes. Implications for the CP conserving Delta I=1/2…
