Hypernuclear matter in compact stars

We discuss the recently developed energy density functional for hypernuclear matter, which is based on simultaneous calculation of heavy single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei and compact stars containing hypernuclear core. The nucleonic matter is described in terms of a density-dependent parametrization of nucleon-meson couplings, whereas the hyperon-meson couplings are deduced from the octet model. We identify the parameter space of hyperon-meson couplings for which massive stellar configurations with $M\le 2.1 M_{\odot}$ exist and at the same time the laboratory $\Lambda$-hypernuclear data can be described.
