$p,Lambda$ emission in coincidence following $K^-$ absorption at rest in nuclei is studied using quantum mechanical scattering theory and nuclear wave functions. $K^-$ absorption is assumed to occur on two protons in the nucleus. In the formalism, emphasis is put on the study of the final state interaction (FSI) effects of $p$ and $Lambda$ with the recoiling nucleus. We include elastic scattering and single nucleon knock-out (KO) channels in the FSI. Calculations are presented for the $^{12}$C nucleus, using shell model wave functions, and without any extra mass modification of the $K^-,pp$ system in the nucleus. Calculated results are presented for the angular correlation distribution between $p$ and $Lambda$, their invariant mass distribution and the momentum spectra of $p$ and $Lambda$. These results are compared with the corresponding experimental measurements cite{agnello}. With only elastic scattering FSI included, the angular correlation distribution and the momentum spectra are found to be in good accord with the corresponding measurements. With full FSI the calculated $p,Lambda$ invariant mass distribution is found to have two peaks, one corresponding to the elastic scattering FSI and another to single nucleon KO FSI. The KO peak agrees fully, in position and shape, with the peak observed in Ref. cite{agnello}. The peak corresponding to elastic scattering FSI does not seem to exist in the measured distribution. Considering that such a two peak structure is always seen in the inclusive ($p$, $p^prime $) and ($e$, $e^prime $) reactions in nuclei at intermediate energies, absence of the elastic scattering peak in the $p,Lambda$ reaction is intriguing.

Novel data from the $K^{-}_{stop}A$ absorption reaction in light nuclei $^{6,7}$Li and $^{9}$Be are presented. The study aimed at finding $Lambda t$ correlations. Regardless of $A$, the $Lambda t$ pairs are preferentially emitted in opposite directio ns. Reaction modeling predominantly assigns to the $K^-_{stop}AtoLambda t(N)A$ direct reactions the emission of the $Lambda t$ pairs whose yield is found to range from $10^{-3}$ to $10^{-4}$$/K^-_{stop}$. The experiment was performed with the FINUDA spectrometer at DA$Phi$NE (LNF).
We investigate double $Lambda$ hyperfragment formation from the statistical decay of double $Lambda$ compound nuclei produced in the $Xi^-$ absorption at rest in light nuclei, $^{12}mathrm{C}$, $^{14}mathrm{N}$ and $^{16}mathrm{O}$. We examine the ta rget and the $LambdaLambda$ bond energy dependence of the double $Lambda$ hyperfragment formation probabilities, especially of those double hypernuclei observed in experiments. For the $^{12}mathrm{C}$ ($^{14}mathrm{N}$) target, the formation probabilities of $^{6}_{LambdaLambda}mathrm{He}$ and $^{10}_{LambdaLambda}mathrm{Be}$ ($^{13}_{LambdaLambda}mathrm{B}$) are found to be reasonably large as they are observed in the KEK-E373 (KEK-E176) experiment. By comparison, for $^{16}mathrm{O}$ target, the formation probability of $^{11}_{LambdaLambda}mathrm{Be}$ is calculated to be small with $Delta B_{LambdaLambda}$ consistent with the Nagara event. We also evaluate the formation probability of ${}^{5}_{LambdaLambda}mathrm{H}$ from a $Xi^-$-${}^{6}mathrm{He}$ bound state, ${}^{7}_{Xi}mathrm{H}$.

The creation of a hypernucleus requires the injection of strangeness into the nucleus. This is possible in different ways, mainly using pi+ or K- beams on fixed targets. A review of hypernuclei production by K- at rest is here presented. When a K- st ops inside a nucleus it can undergo the so called strangeness-exchange reaction, in which a neutron is replaced by a Lambda with the emission of a pion. By precisely studying the outgoing pions both the binding energy and the formation probability of the hypernuclei can be measured. New measurements from the FINUDA experiment on 7Li, 9Be, 13C and 16O, coupled with previous measurements on 12C and 16O, allowed for the first time the study of the formation of hypernuclei as a function of the atomic mass number A. The new measurements also offered the possibility of disentangling the effects due to atomic wave-function of the captured K- from those due to the pion optical nuclear potential and from those due to the specific hypernuclear states. These new results on the study of the hypernuclei production by K- at rest are here presented and discussed.
The reaction pp -> K+ + (Lambda p) was measured at Tp=1.953 GeV and Theta = 0 deg with a high missing mass resolution in order to study the Lambda p final state interaction. The large final state enhancement near the Lambda p threshold can be describ ed using the standard Jost-function approach. The singlet and triplet scattering lengths and effective ranges are deduced by fitting simultaneously the Lambda p invariant mass spectrum and the total cross section data of the free Lambda p scattering.

We investigate the photoproduction of $K^*$ vector meson for the study of the $Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The invariant mass distribution of $piSigma$ shows a different shape from the nominal one, peaking at 1420 MeV. This is considered as a consequenc e of the double pole structure of $Lambda(1405)$, predicted in the chiral unitary model. Combined with other reactions, such as $pi^- p to K^0 piSigma$, experimental confirmation of this fact will reveal a novel structure of the $Lambda(1405)$ state.
