We have measured the polarization of Λ and Λ hyperons produced by 800 GeV protons on a Be target at a fixed targeting angle of 4.8 mrad. Comparison with previous data at 400 GeV production energy and twice the targeting angle shows no significant energy dependence for the Λ polarization. This is in striking contrast to the energy dependence found for σ + and Ξ − polarizations. We find no evidence for Λ polarization at 800 GeV.

Inclusive production cross sections have been measured for the processes p+A→Ξ0+X (A=Be, Cu, Pb) and for p+Be→Ξ¯0+X. Data were taken at angles of 0, 2, 3.5, 7.3, and 9.8 mrad between the incident 400-GeV proton beam and the outgoing hyperon beam. Production cross sections for Λ and Λ¯ production were measured at the same time. The A dependence of the Ξ0 cross sections is discussed, along with interpretations in terms of various models.

Polarization in Inclusive $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ Production at Large $p_T$

A study of the inclusive polarization of Λ hyperons produced by 400-GeV/c protons incident on nuclear targets has been performed at Fermilab. The polarization P of the Λ has been mapped over a large range of xF and pT to good precision for pT up to 3.8 GeV/c. The magnitude of the polarization at fixed xF rises with pT to a plateau at about 1 GeV/c, and the size of the plateau increases monotonically with xF. The Λ¯ were found to be unpolarized for pT<2.4 GeV/c. A target-nucleus dependence for the Λ polarization has been observed.

Forward Inclusive Production Spectrum of $K(s$), $\Lambda^0$, $\bar{\Lambda}$0, and $n$ in the Collision of 200-{GeV}/$c \pi^-$, $K^-$, $\bar{p}$ and $p$ on Be

We have measured the forward production spectra of various neutral particles produced by π−, K−, p¯, and p at 200 GeV/c, and by π− at 290 GeV/c incident on a Be target. The salient features of these measurements are (1) copious production of KSo at large Feynman xL for incident π− and K−, (2) production of roughly equal fluxes of Λ0 and Λ¯0 for incident π−, and (3) close similarity of the following spectra: π−→n and K−→Λ0; π−→Λ0, π−→Λ¯0, and p→KS0; π−→KS0 and p→Λ0. The overall features of the various distributions seem to agree with the ideas of dimensional counting presented in the constituent-interchange model of quark collisions. Results are presented in terms of the invariant cross section Ed3σ(xL, PT=0)dp3 per Be nucleus for each inclusive reaction.
