Abstract

We have measured the magnetic moment of the $Σ^{-}$ hyperon to be $μ (Σ^{-}) = - 0.89 \pm 0.14$ nuclear magnetons. The magnitude of the polarization of $Σ^{-}$ produced at 7.5 mrad by 400-GeV protons in the process $p + Be \to Σ^{-} + X$ averages (15.5±3.6)% over the momentum range 120 to 290 GeV/c. The mean $Σ^{-}$ transverse momentum was 1.32 GeV/c. The polarization direction at production is the same as $Σ^{+}$ and opposite that of $Λ$ and $Ξ^{0}$ .
