Chiral SU(3) dynamics, KN interactions and the quest for antikaon-nuclear clusters

Abstract

This presentation reviews recent developments in the understanding of low-energy kaon-nucleon interactions as they relate to the possible existence of antikaon-nuclear quasibound states. A state-of-the-art discussion of low-energy \bar{K}N interactions is given, with special emphasis on the subthreshold region relevant to the proposed kaon-nuclear systems.
