Measurement of polarization in $pi$$sup -$p $Yields$ K$sup 0$$lambda$$sup 0$ at 5 GeV/c

The LAMBDA /sup o/ polarization was measured in pi -p yields K/sup o/ LAMBDA /sup o/ at 5 GeV/c, using a data sample of 3709 events. The polarization is positive for small t. passes through zero near t = --0.3 (GeV/c)/sup 2/, and becomes large and negative at larger t, consistent with a value of -1.0 for t between --0.7 and -- 1.6 (GeV/c)/sup 2/.
