Abstract: (APS)
γ-ray transitions of energy 2.034 ± 0.023 MeV in the hypernucleus LiΛ7 and 3.079 ± 0.040 MeV in the hypernucleus BeΛ9 are observed. In both cases, the energy of the γ ray in the hypernucleus ZΛA is very close to the energy of the first excited state of the nuclear core. The γ rays are interpreted as arising from core transitions in the presence of the Λ particle. The size of the shift places limits on the strength of the ΛN spin-dependent interaction.- K- LIGHT NUCLEUS: NUCLEAR REACTION
