dc.descriptionBased on 1.35 million polarized $Ξ^{-}$ events, we measure the parameter $ϕ_Ξ$ to be $-1.61^{\circ} \pm 2.66^{\circ} \pm 0.37^{\circ}$ for $Ξ^{-} \to Λπ^{-}$ decay. New results for the parameters $β_Ξ$ and $γ_Ξ$ are also presented. Assuming that the CP-violating phase-shift difference is negligible, we deduce the strong phase-shift difference between the P-wave and S-wave amplitudes of the $Λπ$ final state to be $3.17^{\circ} \pm 5.28^{\circ} \pm 0.73^{\circ}$. This strong phase-shift difference reduces the theoretical uncertainty in estimating the level of CP violation in $Ξ$-hyperon decay.
