- Completed: Jan 8, 1992
An extension of FNAL-756. Uses two methods to produce polarized Omega's. The spin transfer method uses 800-GeV protons to produce a secondary neutral beam of polarized Lambda's and Xi0's, which is then used to produce a tertiary beam of polarized Omega's at 0 mr. The neutral production method uses a secondary beam of unpolarized Lambda's and Xi0's incident at a production angle to produce polarized Omega's. The spectrometer consists of a set of silicon strip detectors and a set of multiwire proportional chambers.
