The production of D-S(-) relative to D-S(+) as a function of x(F) with 600 GeV/c Sigma(-) beam is measured in the interval 0.15 < x(F) < 0.7 by the SELEX (E781) experiment at Fermilab. The integrated charge asymmetries with 600 GeV/c Sigma(-) beam (0.53 +/- 0.06) and pi(-) beam (0.06 +/- 0.11) are also compared. The results show the Sigma(-) beam fragments play a role in the production of D-S(-), as suggested by the leading quark model. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
