Repulsive $\Lambda$ potentials in dense neutron star matter and binding energy of $\Lambda$ in hypernuclei

Asanosuke Jinno, Koichi Murase, Yasushi Nara +1

The repulsive three-body force between the lambda ($\Lambda$) hyperon and medium nucleons is a key element in solving the hyperon puzzle in neutron stars. We investigate the binding ener…
