Description

Hypernuclei, bound states of nucleons and hyperons, offer a unique probe of the strong interaction with strangeness and provide key constraints on hyperon–nucleon interactions. The ALICE experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, exploiting excellent particle identification at low transverse momentum and precise secondary-vertex reconstruction, has performed systematic measurements of light hypernuclei production in pp, p–Pb, and Pb–Pb collisions. In this contribution, the latest ALICE results on hypernuclei production and properties are presented, together with prospects for extending these studies in future LHC runs.
