Theoretical descriptions of the non-mesonic weak decay of Lambda-hypernuclei are unable to reproduce the experimental values of the ratio Gn/Gp=G(Lambda n -> nn)/G(Lambda p -> np). In this contribution we discuss a new approach to this…

In the holographic model of QCD, baryons are chiral solitons sourced by D4 flavor instantons in bulk of size 1/\sqrt{\lambda} with \lambda=g^2*N_c. Using the ADHM construction we explicit the exact two-instanton solution in bulk. We use it…
