Abstract
Recent developments in hypernuclear spectroscopy are reviewed. For Λ hypernuclei we summarize the systematics of Λ single-particle levels, particularly for the 1sΛ ground state, as revealed recently by the (π+, K+) spectra measured at BNL on several nuclei from 9Be to 89Y. For Σ hypernuclei we discuss the difficulties encountered in relating the structures observed in K- initiated reactions at CERN, BNL and KEK to Σ-nuclear interaction parameters. Some results of a recent shell-model study are reported in order to exhibit the interplay between the spin (including spin orbit) and isospin dependence of the ΣN effective interaction for the A = 12, 16 Σ-hypernuclear systems, provided these structures represent genuine excitations.
