Rivet analyses
Polarization of Λ0 baryons at LEP 1
Experiment: ALEPH (LEP)
Inspire ID: 415745
Status: VALIDATED
Authors: - Peter Richardson
References: - Phys.Lett. B374 (1996) 319-330, 1996
Beams: e- e+
Beam energies: (45.6, 45.6)GeV
Run details: - e+e- -> hadrons at 91.2 GeV
Measurement of the polarization of Λ0 baryons at LEP 1. The cos θ and cos ϕ distributions are extracted and then the polarization obtained by fitting the resulting distributions.
