Description

A new tagging method is proposed to suppress the continuous background in π- spectra in Λ hypernuclear spectroscopy using stopped K-. A Monte Carlo simulation was made for 40Ca(stopped K-,π-)sub(Λ)40Ca. This method appears promising in identifying ground and low-lying orbitals of Λ in medium and heavy nuclei. (orig.)
