Abstract
Nonmesonic weak decays of s-shell hypernuclei are analyzed in microscopic models for the Lambda N to NN weak interaction. A scalar-isoscalar meson, sigma, is introduced and its importance in accounting the decay rates, n/p ratios and proton asymmetry is demonstrated. Possible violation of the Delta I=1/2 rule in the nonmesonic weak decay of Lambda is discussed in a phenomenological analysis and several useful constraints are presented. The microscopic calculation shows that the current experimental data indicate a large violation of the Delta I=1/2 rule, although no definite conclusion can be derived due to large ambiguity of the decay rate of {^4_Lambda H}.
