Abstract
The non-mesonic weak decay of polarized Lambda-hypernuclei is studied for the first time by taking into account, with a Monte Carlo intranuclear cascade code, the nucleon final state interactions. A one-meson-exchange model is employed to describe the Lambda N-> n N processes in a finite nucleus framework. The relationship between the intrinsic Lambda asymmetry parameter aΛand the asymmetry aMΛaccessible in experiments is discussed. A strong dependence of aMΛon nucleon final state interactions and detection threshold is obtained. Our results for aMΛare consistent with 11ΛB and 12ΛC data but disagree with observations in 5ΛHe.
