Suppose t = ( T , T 1 , p ) is a triple of two theories in vocabularies τ ⊂ τ 1with cardinality λ, T ⊆ T 1and a τ 1 ‐type p over the empty set that is consistent with T 1 . We consider the Hanf number for the property “there is a model M 1 of T 1 which omits p , butM 1 ↾ τ is saturated”. In [2], we showed that this Hanf number is essentially equal to the Löwenheim number of second order logic. In this paper, we show that if T is superstable, then the Hanf number is less than ℶ ( 2 ( 2 λ ) + )+.
