Cross sections and polarizations for the (π+,K+) hypernuclear production reaction are newly formulated in the correct full scheme based on both the elementary spin-nonflip f and the spin-flip g amplitudes, avoiding thus previous approximations and oversimplifications. Importance of this novel formulation is demonstrated for 12C, 16O, 28Si, and 56Fe targets. Particular states indeed acquire both large cross sections and large polarizations, which has an important bearing on experimental projects.
