Description

Quantum systems with a strangeness degree of freedom are very important as they provide an extra dimension, and hence a deeper insight into nuclear matter. Usually phenomenological potentials obtained through meson exchange theories have been used in investigating these hypernuclear systems. A lambda-neutron interaction constructed through fixed-angular momentum inversion based on the Marchenko Integral Equation is presented. Owing to experimental difficulties in producing a sufficient number of lambda-nucleon scattering events, theoretical phase shift data is used as input for the inversion. The potential obtained is energy-independent and has a soft core, making it more suitable for quantum-mechanical few-body calculations.
