Hyperon production asymmetries in 500 GeV/c pion nucleus interactions
We present a preliminary study from Fermilab experiment E791 of Lambda^0 /
Lambda^0 bar, Xi^- / Xi^+ and Omega^- /Omega^+ production asymmetries from pi^-
nucleus interactions at 500 Gev/c. The production asymmetries for these
particles are studied as a function of x_F and pt^2. We observed an asymmetry
in the target fragmentation region for Lambda^0's larger than that for Xi's,
suggesting diquark effects. The asymmetry for Omega's is significatively
smaller than for the other two hyperons consistent with the fact that Omega's
do not share valence quarks with either the pion or the target particle. In the
beam fragmentation region, the asymmetry tends to 0.1 for both Lambda^0's and
Xi's. The asymmetries vs pt^2 are approximately constant for the three strange
baryons under study.Comment: Typos correcte
Asymmetry studies in Lambda 0/Lambda 0-bar, Xi-/Xi+ and Omega-/Omega+ production
We present a study on hyperon/anti-hyperon production asymmetries in the
framework of the recombination model. The production asymmetries for Lambda
0/Lambda 0-bar, Xi-/Xi+ and Omega-/Omega+ are studied as a function of x_F.
Predictions of the model are compared to preliminary data on
hyperon/anti-hyperon production asymmetries in 500 GeV/c pi- p interactions
from the Fermilab E791 experiment. The model predicts a growing asymmetry with
the number of valence quarks shared by the target and the produced hyperons in
the x_F < 0 region. In the positive x_F region, the model predicts constant
asymmetries for Lambda 0/Lambda 0-bar and Omega-/Omega+ production and a
growing asymmetry with x_F for Xi-/Xi+. We found a qualitatively good agreement
between the model predictions and data, showing that recombination is a
competitive mechanism in the hadronization process.Comment: One reference correcte
