Measurements on the Production and Properties of Light Hypernuclei at STAR

The hyperon-nucleon (Y-N) interaction, an important ingredient for the nuclear equation-of-state (EoS), remains poorly constrained. Precise measurements of hypernucei intrinsic properties and production yields in heavy-ion collisions are crucial for the understanding of their production mechanisms and the strength of the Y-N interaction. Thanks to the high statistics data taken from the STAR BES II program, a series of hypernuclei measurements are carried out at low energies. In these proceedings, we present the kinematic and centrality dependence of light hypernuclei production yields and strangeness population factor (S3, S4) in Au+Au collisions at √SNN = 3 GeV. We also report the energy dependence of Λ3H yields and S3 at mid-rapidity from 3 to 27 GeV Au+Au collisions. Precise measurements of Λ4He lifetime and Λ3H branching ratio are also reported. These results are compared with model calculations and physics implications are discussed.
