A helicity dependence in the p-H/sub 2/O section at 6 GeV/c is measured. The result is (sigma/sub +/ -- sgma/sub -/)/(sigma/sub +/ + sigma/sub -/) = -- (15.0 +- 2.8) x 10/sup -6/ where sigma/sub +/ (sigma/sub -/) is approximately the p-H/sub 2/O total cross section for positive (negative) beam helicity. The helicity dependence may be due to background from weakly decaying hyperons produced in the H/sub 2/O target.
