1  ABLIKIM 2025BT uses production through ${{\mathit e}^{+}}$ ${{\mathit e}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit J / \psi}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \Sigma}^{+}}{{\overline{\mathit \Sigma}}^{-}}$ and ${{\mathit e}^{+}}$ ${{\mathit e}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \psi}{(2S)}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \Sigma}^{+}}{{\overline{\mathit \Sigma}}^{-}}$, with $1016678$ $\pm1398$ and $53293$ $\pm299$ events, respectively.
2  Decay protons scattered off aluminum.
3  Decay protons scattered off carbon.
4  ABLIKIM 2020X uses production through ${{\mathit e}^{+}}$ ${{\mathit e}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit J / \psi}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \Sigma}^{+}}{{\overline{\mathit \Sigma}}^{-}}$ and ${{\mathit e}^{+}}$ ${{\mathit e}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \psi}{(2S)}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \Sigma}^{+}}{{\overline{\mathit \Sigma}}^{-}}$, with 87,815 and 5,327 events, respectively. Note that the reported values of decay parameters ${{\mathit \alpha}_{{{0}}}}$ of ${{\mathit \Sigma}^{+}}$ and ${{\overline{\mathit \alpha}}_{{{0}}}}$ of ${{\overline{\mathit \Sigma}}^{-}}$ are correlated.
