Abstract

We present preliminary results on various aspects of charm baryon studies at the 1996-1997 fixed target experiment of Fermilab studying charm produced from incident Sigma, proton, and pion beams at 600 GeV. First results include the comparison of hadroproduction asymmetries for $Lambda_c^+$ production from the 3 beams as well x_F distributions and the first observation of the Cabbibo-suppressed decay $\Xi_c^+ \to p K^- \pi^+$ . The relative branching fraction of the Cabbibo-suppressed mode to the 3-body Cabbibo-favored modes is also presented.
