Hypernuclei in halo/cluster effective field theory

    The light double ΛΛ hypernuclei,   4ΛΛH  4ΛΛH and   6ΛΛHe  6ΛΛHe, are studied as three-body ΛΛdΛΛd and ΛΛαΛΛα cluster systems in halo/cluster effective field theory at leading order. We find that the ΛΛdΛΛd system in spin-0 channel does not exhibit a limit cycle whereas the ΛΛdΛΛd system in spin-1 channel and the ΛΛαΛΛα system in spin-0 channel do. The limit cycle is associated with the formation of bound states, known as Efimov states, in the unitary limit. For the ΛΛdΛΛd system in the spin-0 channel we estimate the scattering length a0a0 for SS-wave ΛΛ hyperon–hypertriton scattering as a0=16.0±3.0a0=16.0±3.0fm. We also discuss that studying the cutoff dependences in the ΛΛdΛΛd and ΛΛαΛΛα systems, the bound state of   4ΛΛH  4ΛΛH is not an Efimov state but formed due to a high energy mechanism whereas that of   6ΛΛHe  6ΛΛHe may be regarded as an Efimov state.
