Binding, bonding and charge symmetry breaking in $\Lambda$-hypernuclei

Chhanda Samanta, Thomas A. Schmitt

Recent experiments have presented more accurate data on the $\Lambda \Lambda$-binding energies of a few $\Lambda \Lambda$- hypernuclei. This is important as the $\Lambda \Lambda$- bond energies ($\Delta B_{\Lambda \Lambda }$) of double-$\Lambda$…
