We investigate the hypernuclear cluster states of $_\Lambda^{12}\mathrm{B}$ using a neural-network-driven microscopic model. We extend the Control Neural Networks (Ctrl.NN) method and systematically calculate the positive-parity spectrum of…

The $\Lambda(1405)$ production in p+p collisions at 3.5 GeV and K$^-$-induced reactions is discussed. The shift of the measured spectral function of the $\Lambda(1405)$ in p+p reactions does not match either theoretical calculations for p+p…

The Bounded Real Lemma, i.e., the state-space linear matrix inequality characterization (referred to as Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov or KYP inequality) of when an input/state/output linear system satisfies a dissipation inequality, has recently…

A variational technique to describe the ground and scattering states below the break-up threshold for a three-nucleon system is developed. The method consists in expanding the wave function in terms of correlated Harmonic Hyperspherical…

After sketching some historical events related to Yukawa and Tomonaga concerning the birth of mesons, the author describes recent developments in the spectroscopy of pion-nucleus bound states via "pion-transfer" reactions. The role of pions…

We provide a series of arguments which support the idea that the peak seen in the $\gamma p \to K^+ \Lambda$ reaction around 1920 MeV should correspond to the recently predicted state of $J^P=1/2^+$ as a bound state of $K \bar{K}N$ with a…

The scattering of antikaons with nucleons is studied in the nuclear environment. Describing the $\lam$ as a $K^-$ proton bound state, we find, that due to the Pauli blocking of intermediate states, the mass of the $\Lambda (1405)$ is…

A theoretical investigation is done to clarify the origin of the peak structure observed near the $K^{-} p p$ threshold in the in-flight ${}^{3}\text{He} ( K^{-}, \, \Lambda p ) n$ reaction of the J-PARC E15 experiment, which could be a…

We theoretically analyze the $K^{-} {}^{3} \text{He} \to \Lambda p n$ reaction for the $\bar{K} N N$ bound-state search in the J-PARC E15 experiment. We find that, by detecting a fast and forward neutron in the final state, an almost…

The $S$-wave $\Lambda K$ and $\Sigma K$ states with isospin $I=1/2$ are dynamically investigated within the framework of the chiral SU(3) quark model by solving a resonating group method (RGM) equation. The model parameters are taken from…

The hyperon-nucleon interaction is investigated through the final-state interaction in the $K^-d\to\pi^-\Lambda p$ reaction. We focus on the $\Lambda N$-$\Sigma N$ coupled-channel interaction, which produces characteristic structures around…

Using the Walecka model, we investigate theoretically whether an omega meson is bound to finite nuclei. We study several nuclei from ^{6}He to ^{208}Pb, and compare the results with those in the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model. Our…

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…

A direct experimental evidence of the occurrence of the weak reaction $\Lambda np\rightarrow nnp$ in nuclei has been obtained by the FINUDA experiment. Three events have been found that can be attributed to $^{7}_{\Lambda}$Li and…

We develop the formalism to study the hyperon-nucleon interaction potential within the bound state approach to the SU(3) Skyrme model. The general framework is illustrated by applying it to the diagonal $\Lambda N$ potential. The central,…

Differential cross sections for $K^-$ radiative capture in flight on the proton, leading to the $\gamma\Lambda$ and $\gamma\Sigma^0$ final states, have been measured at eight $K^-$ momenta between 514 and 750 MeV/$c$. The data were obtained…

Recently a peak structure was observed near the $K^{-} p p$ threshold in the in-flight ${}^{3} {\rm He} (K^{-} , \, \Lambda p) n$ reaction of the E15 experiment at J-PARC, which could be a signal of a $\bar{K} N N$ bound state. In order to…

Near-threshold $p\bar\Lambda$ mass spectra for the reactions $e^+e^- \to K^- p\bar\Lambda$ and $J/\psi \to K^- p\bar\Lambda$ are investigated with an emphasis on the role played by the interaction in the $p\bar\Lambda$ system. As guideline…

Recent studies within the framework of chiral unitary theory produce the $\Lambda (1520)$ resonance, among several others, as a dynamically generated resonance from the interaction of the baryon decuplet and the meson octet. The $\Lambda…
