Description

Spectroscopic study of electro-produced Lambda hypernuclei has started at Jefferson Lab in the last year of the 20th century. Though it is known that spectroscopy of electro-produced hypernuclei has unique feature over other meson-produced hypernuclear spectroscopy, there exist many experimental difficulties such as small production cross section, huge electron background and so on. We, finally, established the Lambda hypernuclear spectroscopy with electron beam by introducing novel experimental techniques and efforts of more than a decade. JLab hypernuclear collaboration is now preparing for a new experiment (JLab E12-15-008) to investigate isospin dependence of Lambda hypernuclei with Ca40 and Ca48 targets. I will overview unique feature of previously carried out hypernuclear study with electron beams at JLab. Physics goal and preparation status of the new experiment and future prospect of hypernuclear study with electron beams will be also discussed.
