Abstract

Using a phenomenological KN interaction combined with the method of Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics., we predict that few-body double- nuclei, such as ppK-K- and ppnK-K-, as well as single- nuclei, are tightly bound compact systems with large binding energies and ultra-high nucleon densities. We point out that these nuclear clusters can be produced as residual fragments in relativistic heavy-ion collisions and that their invariant masses can be reconstructed from their decay particles.
