On the binding energy of double Lambda hypernuclei in the relativistic mean field theory

We calculate the binding energy of two $Lambda$ hyperons bound to a nuclear core within the relativistic mean field theory. The starting point is a two-body relativistic equation of the Breit type suggested by the RMFT, and corrected for the two-particle interaction. We evaluate the 2 $Lambda$ correlation energy and estimate the contribution of the $sigma^*$ and $Phi$ mesons, acting solely between hyperons, to the bond energy $Delta{B_{LambdaLambda}}$ of $^6_{LambdaLambda}He$, $^{10}_{LambdaLambda}Be$ and $^{13}_{LambdaLambda}B$. Predictions of the $Delta{B_{LambdaLambda}}$ A dependence are made for heavier $Lambda$-hypernuclei.
