Abstract
The polarization of and hyperons produced by protons on a BeO target at a fixed targeting angle of 4.8 mrad is measured by the KTeV experiment at Fermilab. Our result of 9.7% for polarization shows no significant energy dependence when compared to a result obtained at production energy and at twice our targeting angle. The polarization of the is measured for the first time and found to be consistent with zero. We also examine the dependence of polarization on production .
