Our research program has developed into two major thrusts. The first uses kaons produced at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) to study the properties of hyperons embedded in nuclear matter. Specifically we have had under investigation for some time the spectra of both lambda and sigma hypernuclei and the extraction of the hyperon-nucleon interaction parameters. The second thrust uses antinucleons produced by the AGS to study the antinucleon nucleon interaction and the properties of the annihilation reaction. Both thrusts have an approved program at the AGS which will last several years. Experiments are listed and abstracts of current research are given. Some preliminary results from experiments are presented, and new approved proposals are detailed. (WHK)
