Abstract:
New spectra from the FINUDA experiment of the Non-Mesonic Weak Decay (NMWD) proton kinetic
energy for 9ΛBe, 11ΛB, 12ΛC, 13ΛC, 15ΛN and 16ΛO are presented and discussed along with the published data on
5ΛHe and 7ΛLi.
Exploiting the large mass number range and the low energy threshold (15 MeV) for the proton detection
of FINUDA, an evaluation of both Final State Interactions (FSI) and the two-nucleon induced NMWD
contributions to the decay process has been done. Based on this evaluation, a linear dependence of
FSI on the hypernuclear mass number A is found and for the two-nucleon stimulated decay rate the
experimental value of Γ2/Γp = 0.43 ± 0.25 is determined for the first time. A value for the two-nucleon
stimulated decay rate to the total decay rate Γ2/ΓNMWD = 0.24±0.10 is also extracted.
