Description

Hyperon decays serve as important windows for searching for new sources of CP violation and as ideal probes for studying strong interactions at low energies. In addition to the well-known hadronic weak decays of hyperons, this report presents an experimental overview of the weak radiative decays of hyperons, alongside the less-studied neutron-involved hyperon decays. These studies provide precise experimental constraints for addressing long-standing questions in low-energy strong interaction, such as the DeltaI=1/2 rule and Hara's theorem, while also setting important limists on the new physics beyond the SM.
