Abstract: (Elsevier)
A new fit of a chirally motivated coupled-channel model for meson–baryon interactions is presented including the recent SIDDHARTA data on the 1 s level characteristics of kaonic hydrogen. The kaon–nucleon amplitudes generated by the model are fully consistent with our earlier studies. We argue that a sharp increase of the real part of the in-medium K−p amplitude at subthreshold energies provides a link between the shallow K¯ –nuclear optical potentials obtained microscopically from threshold K¯N interactions and the phenomenological deep ones deduced from kaonic atoms data. The impact on the A -dependence of the Λ -hypernuclear formation rates measured in reactions with stopped kaons is discussed too.Note:
