Hyperon production from neutrino-nucleon reaction

Abstract

The neutrino induced hyperon production processes ${\bar{\nu }}_{e/\mu }+p\to e^{+}/{\mu }^{+}+\pi +\Lambda /\Sigma$ may provide a unique clean place for studying low energy $\pi \Lambda /\Sigma$ interaction and hyperon resonances below $KN$ threshold. The production rates for some neutrino induced hyperon production processes are estimated with theoretical models. Suggestions are made for the study of hyperon production from neutrino-nucleon reaction at present and future neutrino facilities.
