  5. 1. Introduction: Aim of nuclear physics Complete knowledge of the interaction among octet of baryons in aunified way 9/13/2014 6

  6. Motivation of studying Strange and multi-strange hypernuclei • to extract interaction between hyperon-N • and hyperon-hyperon • Existence of hypernuclei • represent a new state of matter • may exhibit new symmetries, selection rules, etc.

  7. Presence of hyperon(s) may modify the properties of the core • moment inertia of deformed nucleus • rotational and vibrational states structure of nucleus • Hypernucleus provides us a opportunity to investigate properties of hyperon(s) in nuclear medium • Hyperon(s) inside nuclei may be used as probe to study the nuclear structure

  8. It is believed that hyperons matter forming the inner core of neutron stars would have significant effect on their properties. Schaffner-Bielich [NP 804(2008)309 and ref. their in ] has discussed that hypernuclear potential depths, two-body hyperon- nucleon and hyperon three-body forces as well as hyperon-hyperon interaction would 9/13/2014 9

  9. have a impact on the maximum mass, mass-radius relation, and cooling properties of neutron stars. Therefore, determination of hyperon- nucleon and hyperon-hyperon interaction becomes very important for investigating the properties of neutron stars.

  10. Hypernuclear physics is likely to play key role in the study: • Properties of neutron stars • Equation state of nuclear matter Figure in the next slide shows interdisciplinary nature of hypernuclei linking particle, nuclear, many-body, astrophysics etc. [ref.

  14. Hypernuclear experiments planned or operative at various (nine) laboratories all over the World

  15. Experimental facilities for hypernuclear physics program List of a few leading laboratories where Hypernuclear physics program to produce and identify hypernuclei with strangeness S= -1 to -3 is being pursued • TJNAF(Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility) at Newport news in USA Electro-production • FINUDA(FIsica NUclearea DA NE): A special accelerator, DA NE (Double Annular ring For Nice Experiment), designed at INFN (Instituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

  16. Head on collision 510 MeV 510 MeV Copious production decays (M=1020MeV, 20 s) A beam of of extremely high intensity and precise low energy is expected to insert “strangeness” inside nucleus to produce hypernuclei. 9/13/2014 18

  17. J-PARC(Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) at KEK: Already a rich data related to both the spectroscopy and decay of hypernuclei at KEK have been measured. Program for production and unambiguous identification of • hypernuclei and excited states using reaction ( ) • Excited states of double-Λ hypernuclei 9/13/2014 19

  18. ANDA ( ANnihilation at DArmstadt ): A beam hits primary target to produce ; Stopping and absorption of in the secondary target produce hypernucei. Program to produce S= -3, -hypernuclei 9/13/2014 20

  19. Schematic picture describing production of double Λ hypernuclei at PANDA In primary target In secondary target, e.g. Li, Be, B,

  20. Multi-strange hypernuclei Schaffner et al [Ann. Phys.(NY)235(1994) 35 ] observed that a would become particle stable against the strong decay if a sufficient number of bound ’s Pauli blocked this decay mode. Thus is the lightest system suggested to study. At present production of multi-strange hypernuclei seems to be impossible. 9/13/2014 22

  21. However, it will interesting to theoretically study the stability of multi-strange systems. Such a study is likely to have implication on future experimental efforts in producing, identifying and measuring the properties of multi-strange hypernuclei. Therefore, we have included in our study multi-strange hypernuclei apart from strange ones.
