Description

This presentation will provide an overview of experimental efforts to search for the H-dibaryon, focusing on the most recent findings from the J-PARC E42 experiment. The E42 experiment explores the existence of the H-dibaryon near the $\Lambda\Lambda$ and $\Xi^-p$ mass thresholds, having collected thousands of $\Lambda\Lambda$ production events through $(K^-, K^+)$ reactions on a $^{12}$C target at 1.8 GeV$/c$. Additionally, the talk will address the significance of the H-dibaryon in exotic baryon spectroscopy and its implications for advancing our understanding of multiquark states.
