Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We present a two-target measurement method to determine the interaction cross section of hypernuclei with a target nucleus. The method allows to extract from two independent measurements the production cross section of a given hypernucleus as well as its interaction cross section on a specific target. The latter is then further analyzed to deduce the matter radius of the hypernucleus. The sensitivity of the method has been investigated for the specific case of the lightest hyperhalo candidate hypertriton (Λ3 H) produced from C+ C collisions at 1.9 GeV/nucleon. Furthermore, its feasibility is demonstrated by detailed simulations for realistic experimental conditions at GSI/FAIR, using a dedicated HYDRA (HYpernuclei Decay at R B Apparatus) time-projection chamber prototype. A precision of 15% or better in the interaction cross section can be achieved, allowing an extraction of the unknown Λ3 H matter radius and assessing its halo or non-halo character.
