Studies of the baryon-baryon interaction involving hyperons within chiral effective field theory, so far performed up to next-to-leading order (NLO) in the chiral expansion, have shown that for the strangeness S=−1 (ΛN, ΣN) and S=−2 (

baryon-baryon systems where empirical information is rather scarce. Specifically we address the question how measurements of two-body correlation functions in heavy-ion collisions and/or in high-energetic proton-proton collisions can help to constrain the interaction in channels like
