| Research Abstract |
“Kaonic nuclei” which mean nuclei with anti-kaon containing a strangeness quark are considered to have exotic properties such as highly dense state. In order to reveal the nature of kaonic nuclei, we have investigated the most essential kaonic nucleus “K^-pp” (a system consist of a K^-meson and two protons) theoretically with a little approximation. As a result, it is found that the very strong repulsion between two nucleons prevents two protons getting close to each other, in spite that the strong attraction from K^-meson makes them approach to each other. The distance between two protons in K^-pp is confirmed to be nearly equal to that for a normal nucleus. Therefore, we consider that the K^-pp is a state with the normal density, not highly dense.
