Title: Alternative methods for measurement of the global polarization of Λ hyperons

Abstract

We propose here alternative methods for measurement of the global polarization of Λ hyperons. These methods involve event averages of proton and Λ momenta in the laboratory frame. We carry out simulations using these methods and show that all of them work equally well in obtaining the global polarization of Λ hyperons.
