OPAL_1997_I447188

Polarization of $\Lambda^0$ baryons at LEP 1
Experiment: OPAL (LEP)
Inspire ID: 447188
Status: VALIDATED
Authors:
  • Peter Richardson
References:
  • Eur.Phys.J. C2 (1998) 49-59
Beams: e- e+
Beam energies: ANY
Run details:
  • e+e- -> hadrons at 91.2 GeV

Measurement of the polarization of $\Lambda^0$ baryons at LEP 1. The $\cos\theta$ and $\cos\phi$ distributions are extracted and then the polarization obtained by fitting the resulting distributions.
