lambda. production in e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilation at 29 GeV

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The inclusive production cross section of ..lambda..,Lambda-bar in e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilation at a c.m. energy of 29 GeV has been measured with the time-projection-chamber detector at PEP. The average ..lambda..,Lambda-bar multiplicity has been measured to be 0.197 +- 0.012(stat.) +- 0.017(syst.) ..lambda..-Lambda-bar pairs have been observed in jets for the first time, and the average number of ..lambda..-Lambda-bar pairs per event has been measured to be 0.042 +- 0.017 +- 0.014.
