The double differential multiplicities and rapidity distributions for Lambda hyperon production in central Au+Au interactions at AGS in the range of rapidities from 1.7 to 3.2 and the range of transverse kinetic energies from 0.0 to 0.7 GeV are parametrized in terms of the the Blast Wave approximation. The longitudinal and transverse radial expansion parameters and the mean temperature of Lambda hyperons after the freeze-out of the nuclear matter are presented. The predictions of the RQMD model with and without mean field potentials are compared to our data. Both variants of RQMD are parameterized in terms of the Blast Wave model and the results of such parameterizations are compared to the experimental ones. It is found that inclusion of the mean field potentials in RQMD is essential to account for the strong expansion observed in the data.
