Abstract
We present a microscopic study of electromagnetic properties of the low-lying states of single-Λ hypernucleus Be using a quantum-number projected generator coordinate method (HyperGCM) based on covariant density functional theory. All the configurations are restricted to have axial symmetry, with the Λ hyperon in the lowest-energy state. The results are compared to the predictions of a simple particle-rotor model (PRM), for which analytic expressions are available. We show that the electromagnetic properties of Be from the HyperGCM calculation are close to those by the PRM. In particular, it is found that the magnetic moments and M1 transition strengths are less sensitive to the coupling strengths of the ΛN interaction than the electric quadrupole transition strengths. The latter may provide additional constraints on the ΛN interaction.
