The question of the competition between $\Lambda$ and $\Xi^{0,-}$ in the ground-state of multi-strange hypernuclei is addressed within a non-relativistic density functional approach, partially constrained by ab-initio calculations and…
The $A$-dependence of the bond energy $\Delta B_{\Lambda\Lambda}$ of the ${\Lambda\Lambda}$ hypernuclear ground states is calculated in a three-body ${\Lambda + \Lambda + {^{A}Z}}$ model and in the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach. Various…
The complete form of the equation of state of strangeness rich proto-neutron and neutron star matter has been obtained. The currently obtained lower value of the Lambda Lambda potential at the level of 5 MeV permits the existence of…
Recent experimental evidence presented by the FINUDA Collaboration for a particle-stable Lambda-6H has stirred renewed interest in charting domains of particle-stable neutron-rich Lambda hypernuclei, particularly for unbound nuclear cores.…
We introduce a mean field model based on realistic 2-body baryon interactions and calculate spectra of a set of p-shell and sd-shell {\Lambda} hypernuclei - 13{\Lambda}C, 17{\Lambda}O, 21{\Lambda}Ne, 29{\Lambda}Si and 41{\Lambda}Ca. The…
We have revisited the possible existence and the binding mechanism of heavy hyperhydrogen 6^H_Lambda. This Lambda hypernucleus is enriched in information about Lambda hypernuclear dynamics which would shed a light on significant role of…
We explore the systematics of ground-state and excitation energies in singly-strange hypernuclei throughout the helium and lithium isotopic chains --- from $^5_\Lambda$He to $^{11}_\Lambda$He and from $^7_\Lambda$Li to $^{12}_\Lambda$Li ---…
After a short introduction to the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) $\Lambda N\go nN$ of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei we discuss the long-standing puzzle on the ratio $\Gamma_n/\Gamma_p$, and some recent experimental evidences that signalized towards…
The spectral function of the $\Lambda$ hyperon in finite nuclei is calculated from the corresponding $\Lambda$ self-energy, which is constructed within a perturbative many-body approach using some of the hyperon-nucleon interactions of the…
We present a detailed study of chemical freeze-out in nucleus-nucleus collisions at beam energies of 11.6, 30, 40, 80 and 158A GeV. By analyzing hadronic multiplicities within the statistical hadronization approach, we have studied the…
The BNL-AGS E906 experiment was the first fully electronic experiment to produce and study double hypernuclei with large statistics. Two dominant structures were observed in the correlated $\pi^-$--$\pi^-$ momentum matrix at…
The nonmesonic weak decay spectra of light hypernuclei have been evaluated in a systematic way. As theoretical framework we adopt the independent particle shell model with three different one-meson-exchange transition potentials. Good…
We consider 3 types of processes pertinent to the phenomenology of an H di-baryon: conversion of two $\Lambda$'s in a doubly-strange hypernucleus to an H, decay of the H to two baryons, and -- if the H is light enough -- conversion of two…
Stimulated by recent indications that the binding energy of the hypertriton could be significantly larger than so far assumed, requirements of a more strongly bound $^3_\Lambda {\rm H}$ state for the hyperon-nucleon interaction and…
The weak production of Lambdas in nucleon-nucleon scattering is studied in a meson-exchange framework. The weak transition operator for the $NN \to N \Lambda$ reaction is identical to a previously developed weak strangeness-changing…
The main open problem in the physics of Lambda-hypernuclei is the lack of a sound theoretical interpretation of the large experimental values for the ratio G_n/G_p. To approach the problem, we have incorporated a Lambda N-> nN…
Shell-model calculations in a large model space are performed for _{\Lambda}^{16}O and_{\Lambda}^{17}O. Effective interactions with degrees of freedom of \Sigma in addition to \Lambda and nucleons are derived from hyperon-nucleon and…
We present an effective field theory (EFT) at leading order to describe light single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei. Owing to the weak $\Lambda$ binding and to the $\Lambda N$ short interaction range, meson exchange forces are approximated by…
Using the SU6 quark-model baryon-baryon interaction recently developed by the Kyoto-Niigata group, we calculate NN, Lambda N and Sigma N G-matrices in ordinary nuclear matter. This is the first attempt to discuss the Lambda and Sigma…
The hypernucleus $\nuclide[6][\Lambda\Lambda]{He}$ is studied as a three-body ($\Lambda\Lambda\alpha$) cluster system in cluster effective field theory at leading order. We find that the three-body contact interaction exhibits the limit…
