Understanding the properties of the strange $\Lambda^*$ baryon resonances is a long-standing and fascinating problem. $\Lambda_c$ charm-baryon semileptonic weak decays to these resonances are highly sensitive to their internal structure and…

The width of a recently discovered excited charmed-strange baryon, a candidate for a state $\Xi_c^*$ with spin 3/2, is calculated. In the absence of configuration mixing between the ground-state (spin-1/2) charmed-strange baryon…
Up to now, the excited charmed and bottom baryon states are still not well studied both experimentally and theoretically. In the present paper, we predict the mass of $\Omega_b^*$, the only $L = 0$ baryon state which has not been observed,…
In the quark-diagram scheme, we study the charmed baryon decays of ${\bf B}_c\to {\bf B}^* M$, where ${\bf B}_c$ is $\Lambda_c^+$ or $\Xi_c^{+(0)}$, together with ${\bf B}^*$ ($M$) the decuplet baryon (pseudoscalar meson). It is found that…
We report the first observation of two charmed strange baryons that decay into $\Lambda_c^+ K^-\pi^+$. The broader of the two states is measured to have a mass of $2978.5\pm 2.1\pm 2.0$ MeV/$c^2$ and a width of $43.5\pm 7.5\pm 7.0$…
We study the singly charmed baryon two-body decays of $\mathbf{B}_c \rightarrow \mathbf{B}_D P$ under $SU(3)_{F}$ flavor symmetry, where ${\bf B}_{c}$ refers to anti-triplet singly charmed baryons, and ${\bf B}_{D}$ and $P$ denote decuplet…
We analyze the radiative decays of the the 1$P$, 1$D$, 2$S$, and 2$P$ $\Lambda_c$ and 1$D$, 2$S$, and 2$P$ $\Xi_c$ charmed baryons, which belong to the flavor anti-triplet ($\bf {\bar 3}_{\rm F}$), using the constituent quark model. We…
