Authors: G. Alexander, O. Benary, U. Karshon, A. Shapira, G. Yekutieli, R. Engelmann, H. Filthuth, A. Fridman, B. Schiby
Reference: Phys. Lett. 19 (1966), 715
Group: Heidelberg/Rehovoth

The experiment:

238 elastic Λ p events have been recorded in an exposure of the Saclay 81 cm hydrogen bubble chamber at CERN to a beam of stopping K- mesons.
10.000 frames were scanned, 256 events were found of which 238 were accepted for the final analysis.
The presented results were `preliminary'; the final results are presented in AL68
