Abstract

The results of a search for

Ω^{-}

hyperon production and decay in

K^{-} p

interactions at 5.5-GeV/c

K^{-}

momentum are presented. Three unambiguous examples of

Ω^{-}

production were found, and the mass of the

Ω^{-}

was measured. The mass value obtained is 1671.8±0.9 MeV/

c^{2}

. Other details of the three events are given.
