Major goals of hypernuclear physics
1) To understand baryon-baryon interactions 2) To study the structure of multi-strangeness systems In order to understand the baryon-baryon interaction, two-body scattering experiment is most useful. Total number of Nucleon (N) -Nucleon (N) data: 4,000 Study of NN intereaction has been developed. YN and YY potential models so far proposed (ex. Nijmegen, Julich, Kyoto-Niigata) have large ambiguity. ・ Total number of differential cross section Hyperon (Y) -Nucleon (N) data: 40 ・ NO YY scattering data since it is difficult to perform YN scattering experiment even at J-PARC.

No Pauli principle Between N and Λ Λ particle can reach deep inside, and attract the surrounding nucleons towards the interior of the nucleus. N Λ Due to the attraction of Λ N interaction, the resultant hypernucleus will become more stable against the neutron decay. Hypernucleus Λ neutron decay threshold γ nucleus hypernucleus

Summary of nnΛ　system: Motivated by the reported observation of data suggesting a bound state nnΛ, we have calculated the binding energy of this hyperucleus taking into account ΛN-ΣN explicitly. We did not find any possibility to have a bound state in this system. ‘Nonexistence of a Λnn bound state’ H. Garcilazo and A. Valcarce, Phys. Rev. C 89, (2014). They did not find any bound state in nnΛ system. However, the experimentally they reported evidence for a bound state. As long as we believe the data, we should consider additional missing elements in the present calculation. But, I have no idea. Experimentally, they did not report any binding energy.

3n 3H Summary of nnΛ system: It might be good idea to
perform search experiment of nnΛ system at Jlab to conclude whether or not the system exists as bound state experimentally. Or I hope to perform search experiment at GSI again in the Future. n n n n 3H 3n Λ Λ n p (e,e’K+)

It is interesting to investigate the charge symmetry breaking effect
in p-shell Λ hypernuclei as well as s-shell Λ hypernuclei. For this purpose, to study structure of A=7 Λ hypernuclei is suited. Because, core nuclei with A=6 are iso-triplet states. p p n n n p α α α 6Be 6Li(T=1) 6He

These two data of Be7L and Li7L are taken by emulsion data. As mentioned by the previous speaker, Hashimoto san, we got new data of He7L. The value is like this. We see that as the number of neutron increase, Lambda separation energy increase. -3.79 7Be 7Li (T=1) Λ Λ 7He Λ

Can we describe the Λ binding energy of 7He observed at JLAB
Important issue: Can we describe the Λ binding energy of 7He observed at JLAB using　ΛN　interaction to reproduce the Λ binding energies of 7Li (T=1) and 7Be ?

E. Hiyama, Y. Yamamoto, T. Motoba and M. Kamimura,PRC80, (2009)

Now, it is interesting to see as follows:
What is the level structure of A=7 hypernuclei without CSB interaction? (2) What is the level structure of A=7 hypernuclei with CSB interaction?

Now, it is interesting to see as follows:
What is the level structure of A=7 hypernuclei without CSB interaction? (2) What is the level structure of A=7 hypernuclei with CSB interaction?

The binding of Li7 with and without CSB is almost the same. Because, there is cancellation between ｎΛ and pΛ CSB interaction. On the other hand, in the case of Be7L, the energy of Be7L with CSB make deeper bound by 0.2 MeV comparing with this value. And in the case of He7L, the energy with CSB interaction make less bound by 0.2 MeV comparing with this. Then, we found that binding energies with CSB interaction of He7L and Be7L became inconsistent with the data. Inconsistent with the data p n α

How do we understand these difference?
Let me compare with the experimental data of A=4 hypernuclei and data of A=7 hypernuclei. Comparing the data of A=4, and those of A=7 and A=10, tendency of BΛ is opposite. How do we understand these difference?

We get binding energy by decay π spectroscopy.
π-+1H+3He →2.42 ±0.05 MeV 4He Λ π-+1H+1H+2H → 2.44 ±0.09 MeV Total: 2.42 ±0.04 MeV Then, binding energy of 4He is reliable.

Then, for the detailed CSB study, we should perform experiment to confirm the Λ separation energy of 4H. Λ For this purpose, at Mainz, they performed ・・・　4He (e, e’K+) 4H Λ
