Abstract

The visiting scientist will be involved in the investigation of the structure and weak decay of strange and charmed hypernuclei. Specifically, the project aims to extend to charmed hypernuclei a formalism developed by the visitor for strange hypernuclei to treat the non-mesonic weak decay involving the interaction of bound nucleons and hyperons. Investigation of effects due SU(4) flavor symmetry breaking and the consideration of quark-gluon processes in the decay are important parts of the project. (AU)
