Abstract

A sample of 24 700 Ω hyperons was produced by a prolarized neutral beam in a spin-transfer reaction. The Ω polarizations are found to be -0.054±0.019 and -0.149±0.055 at mean Ω momenta of 322 and 398 GeV/c, respectively. The directions of these polarizations give an Ω magnetic moment of -(1.94±0.17±0.14)μN
