Mass Spectrum of exotic Hyperatoms

Abstract

The hyperatoms belong to the group of exotic atoms. An exotic hyperatom is a system where a negative muon as an electron in a normal atom is captured into an hyperatomic orbit around hypernuclei. Our knowledge of the non-relativistic quantum mechanics is a good method for the exotic hyperatoms containing one muon. We theoretically have been investigated exotic muonic hyperatoms. Theoretically, the mass spectra of muonic hyperatoms have been determined in the framework of the non-relativistic Schrodinger equation with Coulomb type potential describing the interaction between a muon and the hypernuclei core. The studies of exotic systems have achieved great progress both in theory and experiments. Mass spectrum and binding energy have been provided useful information for exotic hadronic systems and for hypernuclei which participate in the experimental reaction and also the interaction between them. The analytic method based on quantum field theories, the behavior of the correlation function, Feynman path integral, and oscillator representation method is suggested. Within all of these different frameworks, we have presented the theoretical approach to describing the mass spectrum of muonic hyperatoms in the ground and orbital excited states.
