Abstract

From preliminary studies it has been estimated that approximately 75000Λb will be available in the first years of the ATLAS running with integrated luminosity of 30fb−1, and we will be able to measure the polarization with accuracy of about 2%. In this paper we present the technical feasibility of measuring the polarization of Λb hyperons in ATLAS experiment.
