Description

The prospects of utilizing the strangeness production reaction γd→K+Λn for the determination of the Λn low-energy scattering parameters are investigated. The spin observables that need to be measured in order to isolate the Λn singlet (1S0) and triplet (3S1) states are identified. Possible kinematical regions where the extraction of the Λn scattering lengths might be feasible are discussed. (orig.)
