| Summary: | We present the current status of the performance studies of <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="sans-serif">Λ</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> hyperon directed flow measurement with the CBM experiment at the future FAIR facility in Darmstadt. Kalman Filter mathematics is used to reconstruct <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi mathvariant="sans-serif">Λ</mi><mo>→</mo><mi>p</mi><msup><mi>π</mi><mo>−</mo></msup></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> weak decay kinematics, while the Particle Finder Simple package is used to optimize criteria for <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="sans-serif">Λ</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> hyperon candidate selection. Directed flow of <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="sans-serif">Λ</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> hyperons is studied as a function of rapidity, transverse momentum and collision centrality. The effects on flow measurement due to non-uniformity of the CBM detector response in the azimuthal angle, transverse momentum and rapidity are corrected using the QnTools analysis framework.
