Abstract
Abstract: In an experiment in the CERN-SPS charged-hyperon beam, the main Ω− decay branching ratios have been measured to be Γ(Ω−→ΛK−/Γ(all)=0.686±0.013, Γ(Ω−1→Ξ0π−)/Γ(all)=0.234±0.013, Γ(Ω −→Ξ−π0)/Γ(all)=0.080±0.008. The relative branching ratio of the two Ξπ modes provides a test of the ΔI=12 rule in decuplet-octet transitions. A search has also been made for the rare decay modes Ω−→Λπ−, Ω−→Ξ−γ, Ω−→Ξ−π+π− and Ω −→Ξ0e−ν.

<abstract>Abstract: In an experiment in the CERN-SPS charged-hyperon beam, the main Ω− decay branching ratios have been measured to be Γ(Ω−→ΛK−/Γ(all)=0.686±0.013, Γ(Ω−1→Ξ0π−)/Γ(all)=0.234±0.013, Γ(Ω −→Ξ−π0)/Γ(all)=0.080±0.008. The relative branching ratio of the two Ξπ modes provides a test of the ΔI=12 rule in decuplet-octet transitions. A search has also been made for the rare decay modes Ω−→Λπ−, Ω−→Ξ−γ, Ω−→Ξ−π+π− and Ω −→Ξ0e−ν.</abstract>

<abstract lang="en">Abstract: In an experiment in the CERN-SPS charged-hyperon beam, the main Ω− decay branching ratios have been measured to be Γ(Ω−→ΛK−/Γ(all)=0.686±0.013, Γ(Ω−1→Ξ0π−)/Γ(all)=0.234±0.013, Γ(Ω −→Ξ−π0)/Γ(all)=0.080±0.008. The relative branching ratio of the two Ξπ modes provides a test of the ΔI=12 rule in decuplet-octet transitions. A search has also been made for the rare decay modes Ω−→Λπ−, Ω−→Ξ−γ, Ω−→Ξ−π+π− and Ω −→Ξ0e−ν.</abstract>
