Abstract

Recent studies of kaonic atoms, few-body kaonic quasibound states and kaonic nuclei are reviewed, with emphasis on implementing the subthreshold energy dependence of the K-N interaction in chiral interaction models that are consistent with the SIDDHARTA K - hydrogen data. Remarks are made on the possible role of the p-wave σ(1385) resonance with respect to that of the s-wave Λ(1405) resonance in searches for strangeness S=-1 dibaryons.
