The problem of the $\Xi_{c}^{+}$ lifetime is considered in the framework of {\em Heavy-Quark Expansion} and $SU(3)_{flavor}$ symmetry. The lifetime of $\Xi_{c}^{+}$ is expressed in terms of measurable inclusive quantities of the other two…

Two recently discovered excited charm baryons are studied within the framework of Heavy Hadron Chiral Perturbation Theory. We interpret these new baryons which lie $308 \MeV$ and $340 \MeV$ above the $\Lambda_c$ as $I=0$ members of a P-wave…

We search for the production of doubly charmed baryons in e^+e^- annihilations at or near a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV, in a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 232 fb^-1 recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II…

We develop a precision framework for doubly charmed baryon decays based on symmetry-protected observables and effective-field-theory diagnostics. In nonleptonic $\Xi_{cc}$ decays, we construct a null combination of widths that vanishes in…

Using 29.1fb-1 of data accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) with the Belle detector at KEKB, we have studied the decay modes B0bar->Lambda_c+ pbar pi+pi-, B- -> Lambda_c+ pbar pi-, and B0bar ->Lambda_c+ pbar. We report branching fractions of…

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.…

Using 13.7 fb^{-1} of data recorded by the CLEO detector at CESR, we investigate the spectrum of charmed baryons which decay into Lambda_c^+ pi^- pi^+ and are more massive than the Lambda_{c1} baryons. We find evidence for two new states:…
