Hypernuclear spectroscopy with K${}^{-}$ at rest on ${}^7$Li, ${}^9$Be, ${}^{13}$C and ${}^{16}$O

Abstract

The FINUDA experiment collected data to study the production of hypernuclei on different nuclear targets. The hypernucleus formation occurred through the strangeness-exchange reaction $K_{stop}^{-}+{}^{A}Z\to {}_{\Lambda }^{A}Z+{\pi }^{-}$. From the analysis of the momentum of the emerging ${\pi }^{-}$, binding energies and formation probabilities of ${}_{\Lambda }^7$Li, ${}_{\Lambda }^9$Be, ${}_{\Lambda }^{13}$C and ${}_{\Lambda }^{16}$O have been measured and are here presented. The behavior of the formation probability as a function of the atomic mass number A is also discussed.
