Progress & issues in Strangeness NP

Avraham Gal, Hebrew University, Jerusalem

  • S = −1:

dynamics of Λ hypernuclei (A

ΛZ)

(i) Λ few-body & (ii) neutron-rich systems (iii) Λ and other hyperons in neutron stars?

  • ΛΛ hypernuclei:

long-lived H dibaryon?

  • Hyperons (Λ, Σ, Ξ) in nuclear matter

|S| → ∞: strange hadronic matter?

  • Kaons in nuclei:

K− quasibound states? Θ+(1530) traces in K+ nuclear dynamics?

  • SNP Special Issue:
  • Nucl. Phys. A 881 (2012)
  • Proc. HYP 2012:

Studies of Λ hypernuclei

  • (K−, π−) – emulsions, CERN, BNL, KEK, LNF, J-PARC
  • (π+, K+) – BNL, KEK, J-PARC
  • (π+, K+ γ) – KEK & (K−, π− γ) – BNL, J-PARC with Hyperball-J
  • (e, e′ K+) – JLab, Hall A and Hall C; now also at MAMI
  • DCX: (π−, K+) – KEK, J-PARC & (K−

stop, π+ prod π− decay) – LNF

Scheduled experiments at J-PARC using meson beams:

  • E13: γ-ray spectroscopy of Λ hypernuclei
  • E10: DCX studies of neutron-rich A

ΛZ (6Li, 9Be & 10B targets)

  • E18: 12

Λ C weak decays

  • E22: weak interactions in 4

ΛH − 4 ΛHe

Studies of exotica & light hypernuclei lifetimes by heavy ions:

  • In GSI, the HypHI Experiment, 6Li on C at 2 A GeV
  • In LHC, the ALICE Collaboration, Pb-Pb at √sNN=2.76 TeV

ΛNN effect on neutron stars

  • Adding ΛNN (and YY) stiffens EOS of neutron stars.
  • Σ & Ξ hyperons need to be considered too.
  • YY add 0.3M⊙ to Mmax (Rijken-Schulze 2016).

ΛΛ conclusions

  • Relatively weak ΛΛ interaction

  • Onset of ΛΛ binding likely with

5 ΛΛH & 5 ΛΛHe

  • Shell model works well beyond

6 ΛΛHe

  • No sound SM or CM interpretation for Hida event
  • Need more data for systematics and for studying

possible continuum effects from H dibaryon

  • J-PARC E07: S = −2 emulsion-counter studies
  • J-PARC E42: search for H dibaryon in (K−, K+)
  • FAIR (PANDA): slowing down Ξ− from ¯

  • Systematics of EFT (LO): The S = −3, −4 sectors require only the 5 LECs

determined in the Y N sector fit, independently of the 6th LEC required in the S = −2 sector (this LEC is consistent with zero). Hence get PREDICTIONS.

For these targets, both upper-level and lower-level can be studied simultaneously owing to a ≈50 eV resolution of new microcalorimeter detectors.

Summary & Outlook

  • ΛN hypernuclear spin dependence deciphered.
  • How small is Λ spin-orbit splitting and why?
  • Role of 3-body ΛNN interactions?
  • Search for n-rich A

ΛZ; 6 ΛH? (E10).

  • Re-measure the 4

ΛH–4 ΛHe complex (E13).

  • Repulsive Σ-nuclear interaction; how repulsive?
  • Onset of ΛΛ binding:

4 ΛΛ H or 5 ΛΛ Z? (E07).

  • Do Ξ hyperons quasi-bind in nuclei (ΞN → ΛΛ)?

No quasibound Ξ established yet (E05).

  • Onset of Ξ stability:

6 ΛΞ He or 7 ΛΛΞHe?

33

  • Search for K−pp [Λ∗N(I=1

2,Jπ=0−) dibaryon].

  • Is there Σ∗N(I=3

2,Jπ=2+) dibaryon?

  • No ¯

K condensation in self-bound matter. {N, Λ, Ξ} provides Strange-Hadronic-Matter g.s.

  • Do K−d (SIDDHARTA-2) to constrain K−n.
  • Establish experimental program for precise

K− atom selective measurements.

  • Search for Θ+ pentaquark traces in nuclei by

doing (p,K+).

  • Resolve the 3

ΛH lifetime puzzle (see next page).
