چکیده
The electromagnetic decay processes of excited hyperon states are a very sensitive probe of the structure of hyperons. We will argue that the recent measurements of electromagnetic decay rates indicate that the wave functions of the hyperon ground states should contain sizeable components of excited quark states (configuration mixing). Flavor-SU (3) is a broken symmetry and it appears that the hy-peron wave functions should preferably be written in a uds-basis, where only the light u and d quarks are symmetrized, and not in the usual SU (6)-basis.

We study the decay channels of the Λ(1520) in a nuclear medium and find a sizable change of the order of factor five of the width of this hyperon at normal nuclear matter density. The mass shift of the Λ(1520) is moderate. The change of resonance properties in the nuclear medium is a field that captures permanent attention, and basic symmetries can be tested through medium modification of parti...
متن کامل1 Hyperon photo - and electroproduction at CLAS
(Received: February 7, 2008) The large acceptance and high multiplicity capabilities of the CLAS detector make it possible to study a wide range of previously unmeasured strange baryon production processes. Studies of the decay angular distributions of electroproduced strange baryons have yielded several interesting new results. The Λ(1520) electroproduction decay angular distributions shed lig...

We study the Λ(1520) resonance in a coupled channel approach involving the πΣ(1385), KΞ(1530), ¯ KN and πΣ channels. Implementing unitarity in coupled channels, we make an analysis of the relative importance of the different mechanisms which contribute to the dynamical structure of this resonance. From experimental information on some partial wave amplitudes and constraints imposed by unitarity...

Recent results on ρ(770), K(892), f0(980), φ(1020), ∆(1232) , and Λ(1520) production in A+A and p + p collisions at SPS and RHIC energies are presented. These resonances are measured via their hadronic decay channels and used as a sensitive tool to examine the collision dynamics in the hadronic medium through their decay and regeneration. The modification of resonance mass, width, and shape due...
