Sažetak
A mass spectroscopy experiment with a pair of nearly identical high-resolution spectrometers and a tritium target was performed in Hall A at Jefferson Lab. Utilizing the (e, e′K+) reaction, enhancements, which may correspond to a possible Λnn resonance and a pair of ΣNN states, were observed with an energy resolution of about 1.21 MeV(σ), although greater statistics are needed to make definitive identifications. An experimentally measured Λnn state may provide a unique constraint in determining the Λn interaction, for which no scattering data exist. In addition, although bound A=3 and 4 Σ hypernuclei have been predicted, only an A=4 Σ hypernucleus (4ΣHe) was found, utilizing the (K-, π−) reaction on a 4He target. The possible bound ΣNN state is likely a Σ0nn state, although this has to be confirmed by future experiments.
