Using data collected by the CLEO detector in the Upsilon(4S) region, we report new measurements of the exclusive decays of B mesons into final states of the type Lambda_c^+ p-bar n(pi), where n=0,1,2,3. We find signals in modes with one,…
The doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ was recently observed by LHCb via the decay processes of $\Xi_{cc}^{++}\to \Lambda_c^+ K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $\Xi_c^+\pi^+$. These discovery channels were successfully predicted in the framework that…

We study the four-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B_1 \bar B_2}M_1 M_2$ decays with $\bf B_{1,2}$ ($M_{1,2}$) being charmless baryons (mesons). In accordance with the recent LHCb observations, each decay is considered to proceed through the $B\to…

The recent discovery, by the LHCb collaboration, of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ doubly charmed baryon, has renewed interest in the spectroscopy of doubly heavy hadrons. Experimentally, however, searches for such states appear highly challenging.…
