In this paper we present an accurate analysis of the shape of an isolated rovibrational ammonia line from the strong nu2 band around 10 $\mu$m, recorded by laser absorption spectroscopy. Experimental spectra obtained under controlled…
The branching ratio B(Lambda_c -> p K- pi+) normalizes the production and decay of charmed and bottom baryons. At present, this crucial branching ratio is extracted dominantly from B.bar -> baryons analyses. This note questions several of…
By analysing 6.1 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of data collected at center-of-mass energies between $\sqrt{s}=4.600$ and 4.843 $\rm GeV$ with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we observe the decay $\Lambda_c^+\to n\pi^+\eta$ for the first time…
In a sample of 467 million $B\overline B$ pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider at SLAC we have observed the decay $\overline{B}^0\rightarrow\Lambda_c^+{\overline p} \pi^0$ and measured the branching fraction to be…

New, accurate data are presented on the near threshold p(e,e'p)pi^0 reaction in the range of four-momentum transfers between Q^2=0.05 and 0.15GeV^2/c^2. The data were taken with the spectrometer setup of the A1 Collaboration at the Mainz…
We develop the perturbative QCD formalism including Sudakov effects for semi-leptonic $B$ meson decays. We evaluate the differential decay rate of $B\to \pi l \nu$, and find that the perturbative calculation is reliable for the energy…
Evidence for the singly Cabibbo suppressed decay $\Lambda_c^+\to p\pi^0$ is reported for the first time with a statistical significance of $3.7\sigma$ based on 6.0 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at center-of-mass…
We report the first observation of the decay $\Lambda^+_{c}\rightarrow \Sigma^- \pi^+\pi^+\pi^0$, based on data obtained in $e^+e^-$ annihilations with an integrated luminosity of 567~pb$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s}=4.6$~GeV. The data were collected…

We study the non-leptonic two-body weak decays of $\Lambda_c^+(2286)\to {\bf B}_n M$ with ${\bf B}_n$ ($M$) representing as the baryon (meson) states. Based on the $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry, we can describe most of the data reexamined by the…
