In an experiment at the CERN intersecting storage rings with √ s = 31 GeV, we have measured αP , the product of asymmetry parameter and polarization, for Λ 0 's and Λ 0 's produced in p p and pp interactions, respectively. The ratio, (αP) Λ /(αP Λ = −1.04±0.29 , is consistent with the value −1, and constitutes the first test of CP invariance in Λ decay.

The ratio CONST/CONST is obtained under assumption of POL(LAMBDA) = POL(LAMBDABAR).


$\Lambda^0$ Polarization in Proton Proton Interactions From $sqrt{s} = 31$-{GeV} to 62-{GeV}

The R608 collaboration Smith, A.M. ; Bonino, R. ; Castellina, A. ; et al.

We report Λ 0 -hyperon polarization measurements at the CERN intersecting storage rings from √ s of 31 to 62 GeV. P Λ 0 changes insignificantly, +(0.8±1.7)%, over this range of √ s . However, P Λ 0 is observed to grow with Feynman- x F and with transverse momentum. At an average p t of 1.1 GeV/ c , P Λ 0 depends linearly on x F and approaches −40% at x F =0.8.
