Abstract: (APS)
In the limit of unbroken SU(3) symmetry, we exhibit a selection rule which forbids the decay of certain hypernuclear states involving a coherent admixture of Λ and Σ hyperons. This may provide an explanation of the narrow widths of some hypernuclear excitations observed in the Σ continuum.- SIGMA: HYPERNUCLEUS
