Abstract: We utilize the experimentally known difference of the Λ separation energies of the mirror hypernuclei 4ΛHe and 4ΛH to constrain the Λ-neutron interaction. We include the leading charge-symmetry breaking (CSB) interaction into our hyperon-nucleon interaction derived within chiral effective field theory at next-to-leading order. In particular, we determine the strength of the two arising CSB contact terms by a fit to the differences of the separation energies of these hypernuclei in the 0+ and 1+ states, respectively. By construction, the resulting interaction describes all low energy hyperon-nucleon scattering data, the hypertriton and the CSB in 4ΛHe-4ΛH accurately. This allows us to provide first predictions for the Λn scattering lengths, based solely on available hypernuclear data.
