Nucleon-Hyperon (and YY) Scattering on the Lattice
Abstract
Lattice QCD offers the chance to study the interactions of strange hadrons from the first principles of QCD. These NY (nucleon-hyperon) and YY (hyperon-hyperon) interactions are crucial to understanding the strange matter that may be created in extreme environments, such as the core of a neutron star. Since the fast decay of strange matter prevents experiments from providing strong constraints on the parameters of such interactions, direct theoretical calculations are especially valuable. In this presentation, I will report on the latest progress toward precision nucleon-hyperon and hyperon-hyperon scattering calculation in lattice QCD.
