Abstract

In high energy nuclear reactions one may observe
the production of manifold hypernuclei as a result of the capture of hyperons by
nuclear residues. We have investigated the statistical disintegration of such hyper
nuclear systems and its connection to the binding energies of hyperons. In
the calculations we use the statistical multifragmentation
model (SMM) adopted for the formation of hypernuclei in the high energy nuclear
multifragmentation reaction events. It was shown within this model that the mass
distributions are quite different for the fragments with different strangeness
contents.

Keywords
