We report on a search for Lambda_b -> p pi- and Lambda_b -> p K- (and charge conjugate) decays in p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV using 193 pb-1 of data collected by CDFII experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Data were…
Studies on the production of open charm hadrons are of paramount importance to investigate the charm-quark hadronisation mechanisms at the LHC, particularly through the evolution of the production ratio between different charm-hadron…
Recent experimental data from $pp$ collisions have shown a significant increase in heavy baryon production leading to a baryon over meson ratio which is one order of magnitude higher than elementary collisions ($e^+e^-$, $ep$). From a…

Baryons with a single heavy quark are being studied experimentally at present. Baryons with two units of heavy flavor will be abundantly produced not only at future colliders, but also at existing facilities. In this paper we study the…
