Since the LHCb collaboration announced the observation of the doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$, a series of studies of doubly heavy baryons have been presented. In this work, I analyse the non-leptonic weak decays of doubly heavy…
The $\it{\Xi_{cc}^{++}\to \Xi_{c}^{'+}\pi^{+}}$ decay is observed using proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of $13\mathrm{\,Te\kern -0.1em V}$, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of…
The discovery of $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ has inspired new interest in studying doubly heavy baryons. In this study, the weak decays of a doubly charmed baryon ${\cal B}_{cc}$ to a light baryon ${\cal B}$ and a charm meson $D^{(*)}$ (either a…
We present a direct measurement of the parity-violation parameter A_c. The measurement is based on 550k Z^0 decays collected by the SLD detector. The mean electron-beam polarization is |P_e| = 73 %. The tagging of c-quark events was…
Using the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring we have measured the $\Xi_c^{0}$ decay asymmetry parameter in the decay $\Xi_c^{0} \to \Xi^{-} \pi^+$. We find $\alpha_{\Xi_c^{0}} \alpha_{\Xi} = 0.26 \pm…
We study weak radiative $|\Delta c|=|\Delta u|=1$ decays of the charmed anti-triplett ($\Lambda_c$, $\Xi_c^{+}$, $\Xi_c^{0}$) and sextet ($\Sigma_c^{++}$, $\Sigma_c^+$, $\Sigma_c^0$, $\Xi_c^{\prime +}$, $\Xi_c^{\prime 0}$, $\Omega_c$)…
BESIII has accumulated 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data in the 4.6 to 4.7 GeV energy range, corresponding to the world's largest sample of $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ pairs. This paper summarizes recent BESIII results on…
We analyze polarization effects in associative photoproduction of pseudoscalar ($\bar{D}$) charmed mesons in exclusive processes $\gamma+ N\to Y_c +\bar{D}$, $Y_c=\Lambda_c^+$, $\Sigma_c$. Circularly polarized photons induce nonzero…
We developed a method to analyze the polarization correlations of two baryons $B_{1}\bar{B}_{2}$ with various spin combinations in the annihilation process. We established spin density matrices for arbitrary spins in standard and Cartesian…

In this study, we investigate the nonleptonic decays of the charmed-baryon Xi^ {0} _ c induced by the c -> u(d\bar{d})/(s\bar{s}) transition. Utilizing the factorization assumption, we decompose the decay amplitudes in terms of transition…
Spectroscopy and strong decays of the charmed baryons are reviewed. Possible spin-parity quantum numbers of several newly observed charmed baryon resonances are discussed. Strong decays of charmed baryons are analyzed in the framework of…
V-spin symmetry ($s \leftrightarrow d$ symmetry) forbids the radiative decay $\Xi_{c2}^{0*} \rightarrow \Xi_{c1}^0 \gamma$ in the SU(3) limit. The quark mass term breaks V-spin symmetry and the leading nonanalytic contribution to the…
Non-leptonic two-body weak decays of baryons are an important tool to probe the combined charge-conjugation--parity symmetry (CP) violation. We explain why the decays of strange baryons provide complementary information to the decays of…
We analyze rare charm baryon decays within the standard model and beyond. We identify all null test observables in unpolarized $\Lambda_c \to p \ell^+ \ell^-$, $\ell=e, \mu$ decays, and study the new physics sensitivities. We find that the…
We study the $\Xi_c- \Xi_c'$ mixing effects in the semileptonic decays the doubly charm baryons of $\Xi_{cc}$. We focus on the ratio of ${\cal R}(\theta_c) \equiv {\cal B}( \Xi_{cc} \to \Xi_c' e^+ \nu_e)/ {\cal B}( \Xi_{cc} \to \Xi_c e^+…
Using the helicity formalism of Jacob and Wick we derive spin density matrices of baryon antibaryon pairs produced in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. We consider the production of pairs with spins $1/2+\overline{1/2}$, $1/2+\overline{3/2}$ (+c.c.)…
