Abstract

The neutrino induced hyperon production processes \({\bar{\nu}_{e/\mu} + p \to e^+/\mu^+ + \pi + \Lambda/\Sigma}\) may provide a unique clean place for studying low energy \({\pi\Lambda/\Sigma}\) interaction and hyperon resonances below KN threshold. The production rates for some neutrino induced hyperon production processes are estimated with theoretical models. Suggestions are made for the study of hyperon production from neutrino–nucleon reaction at present and future neutrino facilities.
