  The SELEX experiment (Fermilab E781) is a 3-stage magnetic spectrometer for
the study of charm hadroproduction at large x_F using 600GeV/c Sigma-, pi-, and
p beams. New precise measurements of the Lambda_c, D0, and Ds lifetimes are
presented. Results on Lambda_c and D_s production for x_F>0.2 are reported as
well. The spectrometer was also used for hyperon physics, where we will show
measurements of the Sigma- charge radius, the polarization of inclusive
produced Lambda's, and the polarization of beam Sigma+.
