arXiv:0804.4092 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2008.02.297
Abstract
The major contributions of Richard H. Dalitz to hypernuclear physics, since his first paper in 1955 to his last one in 2005 covering a span of 50 years during which he founded and led the theoretical study of hypernuclei, are reviewed from a personal perspective. Topical remarks on the search for quasi-bound antikaon-nuclear states and on kaon condensation are made.
