{^6_{\Lambda} \rm{H}} Modeled as {^4_{\Lambda} \rm{H}} + n + n

A three-body calculation for the \({^4_{\Lambda} \rm{He}}\) and \({^6_{\Lambda}{\rm H}}\) hypernuclei has been undertaken. The respective cores are \({^4_{\Lambda}{\rm H}}\) . The interactions in the \({^6_{\Lambda}{\rm He}}\) system, modeled as \({^4_{\Lambda} {\rm H+p+n}}\) , are reasonably well known. For example, the p n interaction is well determined by the p n scattering data, the \({^4_{\Lambda}{\rm H}}\) –p interaction can be fitted to the \({^5_{\Lambda}{\rm He}}\) binding energy. The \({^4_{\Lambda}{\rm He}}\) –n interaction can be fitted to α–n scattering data. For the ⁴He–n system the s-wave can be modeled alternatively as a repulsive potential or as an attractive potential with a forbidden bound state. We explore these alternatives in ⁶He, because the interaction comes into play in modeling \({^6_{\Lambda}{\rm He}}\) as well as in our \({^4_{\Lambda}{\rm H}}\) + n + n model of \({^6_{\Lambda}{\rm H}}\) , where the valence neutrons are Pauli blocked from the s-shell of the core nucleus.
