Inclusive Sigma+ and Sigma0 Production in Hadronic Z Decays
L3 Collaboration
Abstract
We report on measurements of the inclusive production rate of Sigma+ and Sigma0 baryons in hadronic Z decays collected with the L3 detector at LEP. The Sigma+ baryons are detected through the decay Sigma+ -> p pi0, while the Sigma0 baryons are detected via the decay mode Sigma0 -> Lambda gamma. The average numbers of Sigma+ and Sigma0 per hadronic Z decay are measured to be: < NSigma+ > + < NSigma+~ > = 0.114 +/- 0.011 (stat) +/- 0.009 (syst), < NSigma0 > + < NSigma0~ > = 0.095 +/- 0.015 (stat) +/- 0.013 (syst). These rates are found to be higher than the predictions from Monte Carlo hadronization models and analytical parameterizations of strange baryon production.
