The status of the light hypernuclei is reviewed, and discussed with models based either on the Nijmegen-RIKEN baryon--baryon interaction or on recent studies using chiral effective field theory. The latter suggests a significantly shorter…
We investigate two exclusive reactions with a Theta+ pentaquark in the final state: electroproduction of a K meson on the nucleon, and K+ scattering on a neutron target producing a lepton pair. These reactions offer unique opportunities to…

Production of pentaquark $\Theta^+$ baryons in central relativistic heavy ion collisions is studied in a kinetic model. Assuming that a quark-gluon plasma is produced in the collisions, we first determine the number of $\Theta^+$ produced…

The creation of a hypernucleus requires the injection of strangeness into the nucleus. This is possible in different ways, mainly using pi+ or K- beams on fixed targets. A review of hypernuclei production by K- at rest is here presented.…

We propose a simple model of production of strange baryons and antibaryons in nuclear collisions at the CERN SPS. The model takes into account both the increase of strangeness production in collisions of lighter ions and a possibility of…
