Relativistic description of Λ, Σ and Ξ hypernuclei

The relativistic mean-field approach is applied to the self-consistent calculations of Λ, Σ, and Ξ hypernuclei. The model includes ω-Y anomalous coupling as well as ρ and A couplings to hyperons. The values of the coupling constants consistent with the constituent quark model were used. The tensor coupling is critical for the hyperon spin-orbit interaction. We witnessed large effects from the ρ-Y interaction and Σ and Ξ hypernuclei. copyright 1995 American Institute of Physics
