Strange particles are important probes of the properties of hot and dense nuclear matter produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. A large fraction of the produced strange quarks is carried by Σ+ and Σ− hyperons, which have decay modes with at least one neutral daughter particle.
In order to identify these hyperons, a missing mass method has been developed and implemented in the CBM KF Particle Finder package, which allows to reconstruct 18 decays with neutral daughter particles with high efficiency and large signal-to-background ratios. The results of a multi-differential analysis of Σ hyperon yields as function of momentum, rapidity, and transverse mass will be presented. The reconstructed distributions are in a good agreement with the Monte Carlo spectra.
