Not enough experimental data • Radial dependence of ΛN interaction from sd-shell hypernuclei 19ΛF: Simplest in sd-shell • Spin-flip property in hypernuclear production and charge symmetry breaking 4ΛHe: Easiest to observe a spin-flip state and largest CSB is suggested but previous data is suspicious (Core nucleus:p-shell、Λ:s-shell → Radial IntegralsD、SN、SL、Tare determined byprevious experiments D= 0.43SN= -0.39SL= -0.01T= 0.03 [MeV] We need more data for checking parameters. Spin dependent force of ΛN interaction are investigated by measuring energy spacing of hypernuclei (~a few 10 keV).
