A measurement of polarization in π−p→ K° Λ° at 5 GeV/ c

We have measured the Λ° polarization in π −p→ K°Λ° at 5 GeV/ c, using a data sample of 3709 events. The polarization is positive for small t, passes through zero near t = −0.3 (GeV/ c) 2, and becomes large and negative at larger t, consistent with a value of −1.0 for t between −0.7 and −1.6(GeV/ c)...
