Consistency of ΛΛ hypernuclear events

Highlights of ΛΛ emulsion events are briefly reviewed. Given three accepted events, shell-model predictions based on p-shell Λ hypernuclear spectroscopic studies are shown to reproduce B _ΛΛ( ¹⁰ _ΛΛBe) and B _ΛΛ( ¹³ _ΛΛBe) in terms of B _ΛΛ( ⁶ _ΛΛBe). Predictions for other species offer judgement on several alternative assignments of the ¹³ _ΛΛ KEK-E176 event, and on the assignments ¹¹ _ΛΛ and ¹² _ΛΛ suggested recently for the KEK-E373 HIDA event. The predictions of the shell model, spanning a wide range of A values, are compared with those of cluster models, where the latter are available.
