Exchange reactions with Dick Dalitz

An account is given of the close collaboration of Dick Dalitz with the European K⁻ Collaboration over many decades in many aspects of hypernuclear physics. In particular, emphasis is given to the topics of double hypernuclei and the discovery and resolution of p-wave Λ strangeness exchange states. A brief review of early work on non-mesonic decays of hypernuclei is also given.
