The FINUDA experiment collected data to study the production of hypernuclei on different nuclear targets. The hypernucleus formation occurred through the strangeness-exchange reaction $K^-_{stop} + \; ^AZ \rightarrow \; ^A_{\Lambda}Z +…
At very high energies, pair production ($\gamma\to e^+e^-$) exhibits many interesting features. The momentum transfer from the target is very small, so the reaction probes the macroscopic properties of the target, rather than individual…
Variational calculations for s-shell hypernuclei are performed by explicitly including $\Sigma$ degrees of freedom. Four sets of YN interactions (SC97d(S), SC97e(S), SC97f(S) and SC89(S)) are used. The bound-state solution of $_\Lambda^5$He…
We theoretically investigate the elastic scattering of 50-MeV $\Sigma^-$ hyperons from $^{28}$Si and $^{208}$Pb in order to clarify the radial distribution of $\Sigma$-nucleus (optical) potentials. The angular distributions of differential…
The $\Lambda$ and neutron decay widths of $\Xi$ hypernuclear states, based on calculated $\Xi N \to \lala$ mixing amplitudes, are estimated. The widths which result from using the Nijmegen Model D interaction are sufficiently small, of…
We report the measurement of the $\gamma p \rightarrow K^{+}\Lambda$ and $\gamma p \rightarrow K^{+}\Sigma^{0}$ reactions at SPring-8. The differential cross sections and photon-beam asymmetries are measured at forward $K^{+}$ production…
We have measured the energy spectra of pions and protons emitted in the weak decay of 12_Lambda_C, 28_Lambda_Si, and Lambda_Fe hypernuclei produced via the (pi+, K+) reaction. The decay widths of the pi- mesonic decay (Lambda -> p + pi-)…
Constraints are set on the Higgs boson decay width, Gamma_H, using off-shell production and decay to ZZ in the four-lepton (4l), or two-lepton-two-neutrino (2l2nu) final states. The analysis is based on the data collected in 2012 by the CMS…
We formulated the Lambda(1405) (abbreviated as Lambda^*) --> (Sigma pi)^0 invariant-mass spectra produced in p+p --> p + Lambda^* + K^+ reactions, in which both the incident channel for a quasi-bound K^-p state and its decay process to…
Threshold measurements of the associated strangeness production reactions pp --> p K(+) Lambda and pp --> p K(+) Sigma(0) are presented. Although slight differences in the shapes of the excitation functions are observed, the most remarkable…
In order to study the Sigma-nucleus optical potential, we measured inclusive (pi^-,K^+) spectra on medium-to-heavy nuclear targets: CH_2, Si, Ni, In and Bi. The CH_2 target was used to calibrate the excitation energy scale by using the…
We discuss the near-threshold behavior of the $\omega$ production amplitude in the reaction $\pi^-p \to \omega n$. In contrast to the results of earlier analyses we find that the averaged squared matrix element of the production amplitude…
We report new measurements of the total cross section for the 3H(p,n)3He reaction from threshold (Ep=1.02 MeV) to Ep=4.5 MeV. The experiment utilized specially prepared Ti-3H targets, and neutrons were detected using a 4-pi detector. A weak…
Recent work on using density dependent $\Lambda$-nuclear optical potentials in calculations of $\Lambda$-hypernuclear binding energies is reviewed. It is found that all known $\Lambda$ binding energies in the mass range $16 \leq A \leq 208$…
Evidence for the neutron-rich hypernucleus 6{\Lambda}H is presented from the FINUDA experiment at DA{\Phi}NE, Frascati, studying ({\pi}+, {\pi}-) pairs in coincidence from the K- +6Li \rightarrow 6 H+{\pi}+ production reaction followed by…
This letter is concerned with the study of the $K^-_{stop}A\rightarrow \pi^\pm\Sigma^\mp A'$ reaction in p-shell nuclei, i.e., $^{6,7}Li$, $^9Be$, $^{13}C$ and $^{16}O$. The $\pi^\pm\Sigma^\mp / K^-_{stop}$ emission rates are reported as a…
We investigate theoretically productions of $^{3,4}_\Lambda$H bound states in the exothermic ($K^-$, $\pi^0$) reactions on $^{3,4}$He targets at $p_{K^-}=$ 1.0 GeV/c in a distorted-wave impulse approximation with the optimal Fermi-averaging…
A theoretical analysis of the $(\pi^-,\gamma\gamma)$ reaction in nuclei is made in order to find the viability of this reaction to test modifications of the $\sigma$ meson mass in nuclear matter. The $\pi\pi$ correlation in the…
Measurements of the t-t and p-t coincidence events in the $^3$H ($\alpha$, ttp) reaction have been obtained at $E_\alpha$ incident energy of 67.2 MeV. Various appropriate angular configurations of detectors were chosen in order to observe…
It is shown that the phase of phi-omega interference in the reaction e^+e^- -->pi^+ pi^- pi^0 at energies close to the phi(1020) peak can be calculated in a way that is practically independent of the model of phi-omega mixing. The magnitude…
