U.S.-Japan Cooperative Science: Investigation of Light Hypernuclei by Pion, Kaon, and Photon Beams

9603216 Hungerford该奖项支持休斯顿大学Ed V. Hungerford教授和日本仙台东北大学Osamu Hashimoto教授为期三年的合作研究项目。研究人员将通过介子、介子和光子光束对光超核进行研究。合作的目标是选择性地研究S=-1和-2轻超核。他们将集中研究超核物理中能更好地阐明强子多体物理中未解决问题的那些方面。这种合作需要理论家和实验家之间密切的工作关系，这一直是该领域的传统优势之一。研究人员计划利用一些新的实验设施刚刚建成或即将投入使用的事实，来研究嵌入奇异超子的原子核。这些设施应提供新的、更精确的资料，从而预测这一领域的重大进展。通过思想和技术的交流，该项目将扩大我们的基础知识基础，促进国际了解与合作。＊＊＊

9603216 Hungerford This award supports a three-year collaborative research project between Professor Ed V. Hungerford of the University of Houston and Professor Osamu Hashimoto of Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan. The researchers will undertake an investigation of light hypernuclei by pion, kaon, and photon beams. The goal of the collaboration is to selectively study S=-1 and -2 light hypernuclei. They will concentrate their investigation on those aspects of hypernuclear physics which better elucidate unsolved problems in hadronic many-body physics. This collaboration requires close working relations between theorists and experimentalists, which has been one of the traditional strengths of this field. The researchers plan to take advantage of the fact that a number of new experimental facilities have just been, or will soon be commissioned, for the study of nuclei embedded with strange hyperons. These facilities should provide new, more precise information thus anticipating a major advance in this field. Through the exchange of ideas and technology, this project will broaden our base of basic knowledge and promote international understanding and cooperation. ***
