We explore dynamical effects for K nuclear states using the relativistic mean-field approach [1]. Our main objective is to place lower limits on the width resulting from the K absorption in the nuclear medium. K absorption modes are included within an optical-model phenomenology, where the density ρ plays a dynamical role. A lower limit ΓK=50±10 MeV is placed on the widths of K nuclear states for binding in the range BK∼100-200 MeV [2]. Substantial polarization of the core nucleus is found in light kaonic nuclei, with central nuclear densities about twice higher than for the corresponding nuclei without K. Calculations of multi-K nuclei indicate that the K separation energy, as well as the associated nuclear densities, saturate with the number of K mesons embedded in the nuclear medium. It is thus argued that multi-K nuclei do not compete with multihyperonic nuclei in providing the ground state of strange hadronic configurations and that kaon condensation is unlikely to occur in strong-interaction self-bound strange hadronic matter [3].
