Polarization of hypernuclei in the (. pi. /sup +/,K/sup +/) reaction

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
Cross sections and polarizations for the (..pi../sup +/,K/sup +/) hypernuclear production reaction are newly formulated in the correct full scheme based on both the elementary spin-nonflip f and the spin-flip g amplitudes, avoiding thus previous approximations and oversimplifications. Importance of this novel formulation is demonstrated for /sup 12/C, /sup 16/O, /sup 28/Si, and /sup 56/Fe targets. Particular states indeed acquire both large cross sections and large polarizations, which has an important bearing on experimental projects.
