Hyperon production from proton-antiproton collisions ats=1.8TeV

Abstract
The production properties of lambdas (Λ0,Λ¯0) and cascades (Ξ,Ξ¯) in the central region in p¯p collisions at s=1.8 TeV at the Fermilab collider are reported. The transverse-momentum spectra of lambdas are measured as a function of multiplicity and the ratios of lambdas to protons (p,p¯) and to all charged particles are studied as a function of transverse momentum and multiplicity. Moreover the average transverse momentum of cascades and the ratio of cascades to lambdas are presented.
