$\bar K$-nuclear bound systems, kaonic nuclei, have been widely discussed as products of the strongly attractive $\bar K N$ interaction in $I = 0$ channels. Recently, we demonstrated that kaonic nuclei can be produced via in-flight…
We review the present status of the experimental and theoretical developments in the field of strangeness in nuclei and neutron stars. We start by discussing the $\bar K N$ interaction, that is governed by the presence of the…
In ultra-peripheral collisions (UPCs) of relativistic heavy ions, photoproduction occurs when a photon emitted from one nucleus interacts with the other nucleus from the opposing beam, producing particles in the final state. Measurements of…

Kaon production, in particular $K^+$ production in heavy ion collisions at intermediate energies is discussed. Main emphasis is put on the question if subthreshold $K^+$ production can serve as a suitable tool to test the high density phase…

Resonances with strong couplings to strangeness channels are investigated in a coupled-channels framework of kaon production with pions and photons. We find evidence for an additional D13 resonance around 1900 MeV that has a significant…
The kaon photoproduction is analyzed up to $E_\gamma^{\rm Lab}$=2.0 GeV by using an isobaric model based on effective Lagrangians and by taking a cross symmetry into account. Both {\it pseudovector} and {\it pseudoscalar} couplings for…
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…
In this work, we discuss the possibility of studying nucleon resonances in the $K^+N$ interactions. Based on our model calculations, it is found that the hyperon exchange plays an important role for the excitation of nucleon resonances in…
Background: In $\pi^+n$ and $\pi^-p$ electroproduction, conventional models cannot satisfactory explain the data above the resonance region, in particular the transverse cross section. Although no high-energy L-T-separated cross-section…
The relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions can produce hypernuclei and low-temperature hyper-matter as a result of hyperon capture by nuclear residues and free nucleons. We use the transport, coalescence and statistical models to describe…

Isobaric models for the photo-production of K$^+$ are discussed and their predictions are shown in the K$^0$ photo-production. The models are further used in spectator model calculations of the K$^0$ photo-production on deuteron.…
