Recent Achievements in Hypernuclear Physics

In the last decade the hypernuclear physics community was committed to carrying on several third-generation experiments. Large data samples were collected on specific items, thanks to dedicated facilities and experimental apparatuses. The attention was focused on both high-resolution spectroscopy and decay mode study of single Λ-hypernuclei. Nowadays this phase is over but, until recently, important and to some extent unexpected results were achieved. Among others, the claim for the first observation of the neutron-rich hypernucleus ({^6_Lambda{rm H}}) and the first experimental evidence for the hypernucleus two-nucleon induced weak decay raised strong interest.
