Abstract
We report our measurement on longitudinal spin transfer, D_LL, from high energy polarized protons to and hyperons in proton-proton collisions at with the STAR detector at RHIC. The current measurements cover , pseudorapidity and transverse momenta up to using the data taken in 2005. The longitudinal spin transfer is found to be D_LL= -0.03\pm 0.13 (stat) \pm 0.04(syst)\LambdaD_{LL} = -0.12 \pm 0.08(stat) \pm 0.03(syst)\bar{\Lambda}<eta> = 0.5<p_T> = 3.7 GeV/c$. The prospects with 2009 data and the future measurements are also given.
