We show that Σ+ hyperons produced by 800 GeV/c protons on targets of Be and Cu have significant polarizations (15–20%). These polarizations persist at values of pt≈2  GeV/c and a wide range of xF. The polarizations from the Cu target are consistently less than from Be. The average ratio of the Σ+ polarization from Cu to that from Be is 0.68±0.08.

The polarization and magnetic moment of the $\Sigma^+$ hyperon have been determined by analyzing 137,300 $\Sigma^+ \to p \pi^0, \pi^0 \to 2 \gamma$ decays. A beam of + inclusively-produced, polarized $\Sigma^+$ hyperons was generated in a Fermilab Meson Lab beamline by 400 GeV protons incident on a beryllium target. The $\Sigma^+$'s were produced at an angle of 5 mrad and ranged in momentum from 140 GeV/c to 350 GeV/c. + 0 The $\Sigma^+ \to p \pi^0, \pi \to 2 \gamma$ decays were detected by a multiwire proportional and drift chamber spectrometer with a lead glass array....

The polarization of 26 000 Σ+ hyperons produced by 400-GeV protons on Be has been measured. The polarizations of Σ+ and Λ hyperons have the opposite sign. The magnitude increases with momentum at 5-mrad production angle, and averages 22% over the momentum range 140 to 280 GeV/c.
