The (e, e′K+) reaction spectroscopy opened a door to high resolution spectroscopy of Λ hypernuclei at JLab and it is currently the only technique to give sub-MeV energy resolution for reaction spectroscopy of wide-mass range Λ hypernuclei. New experiments from light to heavy hypernuclei are under preparation at JLab to solve hypertriton puzzle, to clarify charge symmetry breaking of Λ hypernuclei and to give a clue to solve the hyperon puzzle or the puzzle of heavy neutron stars.
As a hypernuclear precision spectroscopy experiment with other than electron beams, there is a newly proposed experiment using the (π+, K+) reaction at the new HIHR beamline, which is a key facility in the J-PARC hadron experimental facility extension project. The HIHR beamline adopts the momentum dispersion match technique and will enable us to perform sub-MeV resolution spectroscopy for isospin partners to the Λ hypernuclei studied with the electron beams at JLab.
