Description

A possible mechanism responsible for production of polarized Λ hyperons in the reaction pp→ΛX, as well as polarized inclusive Σ and Ψ hyperons, is considered in framework of the method based upon use of a single-time dynamical equation for the scattering amplitude and conceptions of the quark structure of hadrons. Dependence of the polarization on the transverse momentum psub(perpendicular) and the constituent qUark mass, is obtained; predictions for the relative polarizations in reactions with production of new heavy hadrons Λsub(q) q=c, b, t) are also given
