Abstract

Experimental evidence for K̄-nuclear quasibound states is briefly reviewed. Theoretical and phenomenological arguments for and against deep K̄-nucleus potentials which might allow for narrow quasibound states are reviewed, with recent calculations suggesting that Γ ≥ 100 MeV for B ≤ 100 MeV. Results of RMF calculations that provide a lower limit of Γ ∼ 50 ± 10 MeV on the width of deeply bound states are discussed.
