Description
We report on our recent result [1] concerning in-medium $\Lambda$ isospin impurity derived from charge symmetry breking (CSB) in the mirror hypernuclei ${\rm ^4_\Lambda H}-{\rm ^4_\Lambda He}$. Using pionless effective field theory and partially conserved baryon-baryon SU(3) flavor symmetry we find that the in-medium admixture amplitude ${\cal A}_{I=1}$ in the dominantly isospin $I=0$ $\Lambda$ hyperon retains its free-space value $\approx 1.5\%$ inferred by Dalitz and von Hippel [2] and recent QCD+QED lattice calculations [3]. In agreement with recent work [4] we observe that CSB affects spin-singlet and spin-triplet $\Lambda N$ channels differently - in opposite directions, with the former dominating by an order of magnitude. This difference might be explained as a consequence of SU(3) flavor symmetry.
