Using a data sample of 980 ${rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data taken with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we report the results of a study of excited $Xi_c$ states that decay, via the emission of photons and/or charged pions, into $Xi_c^0$ or $Xi_c^+$ ground state charmed-strange baryons. We present new measurements of the masses of all members of the $Xi_c^{prime}$, $Xi_c(2645)$, $Xi_c(2790)$, $Xi_c(2815)$, and $Xi_c(2980)$ isodoublets, measurements of the intrinsic widths of those that decay strongly, and evidence of previously unknown transitions.

The $Lambda_c^+K^-$ mass spectrum is studied with a data sample of $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.6 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. Three $Xi_c^0$ states are observed with a large significance and their masses and natural widths are measured to be begin{eqnarray*} m(Xi_c(2923)^0)&=& 2923.04 pm 0.25 pm 0.20 pm 0.14 ~mathrm{MeV}, Gamma(Xi_c(2923)^0) &=& 7.1 pm 0.8 pm 1.8 ~mathrm{MeV}, end{eqnarray*} begin{eqnarray*} m(Xi_c(2939)^0) &=& 2938.55 pm 0.21 pm 0.17 pm 0.14 ~mathrm{ MeV}, Gamma(Xi_c(2939)^0) &=& 10.2 pm 0.8 pm 1.1 ~mathrm{ MeV}, end{eqnarray*} begin{eqnarray*} m(Xi_c(2965)^0) &=& 2964.88 pm 0.26 pm 0.14 pm 0.14~mathrm{ MeV}, Gamma(Xi_c(2965)^0) &=& 14.1 pm 0.9 pm 1.3~mathrm{ MeV}, end{eqnarray*} where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the limited knowledge of the $Lambda_c^+$ mass. The $Xi_c(2923)^0$ and $Xi_c(2939)^0$ baryons are new states. The $Xi_c(2965)^0$ state is in the vicinity of the known $Xi_c(2970)^0$ baryon; however, their masses and natural widths differ significantly.
Using 980 $fb^-1$ of data collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider, we report a study of the electromagnetic decays of excited {charmed baryons} $Xi_c(2790)$ and $Xi_c(2815)$. A clear signal (8.6 standard deviations) is observed for $Xi_c(2815)^0 to Xi_c^0gamma$, and we measure: $B[Xi_c(2815)^0 to Xi_c^0gamma]/B[Xi_c(2815)^0 to Xi_c(2645)^+pi^- to Xi_c^0pi^+pi^-] = 0.41 pm 0.05 pm 0.03$. We also present evidence (3.8 standard deviations) for the similar decay of the $Xi_c(2790)^0$ and measure: $B[Xi_c(2790)^{0}toXi_c^{0}gamma]/B[Xi_c(2790)^0toXi_c^{prime +}pi^{-}toXi_c^{+}gamma pi^-] = 0.13 pm 0.03 pm 0.02$. The first quoted uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. We find no hint of the analogous decays of the $Xi_c(2815)^+$ and $Xi_c(2790)^+$ baryons and set upper limits at the 90% confidence level of: $B[Xi_c(2815)^{+}toXi_c^{+}gamma]/B[Xi_c(2815)^+toXi_c(2645)^0pi^+toXi_c^+pi^-pi^+] < 0.09,$ and $B[Xi_c(2790)^{+}toXi_c^{+}gamma]/B[Xi_c(2790)^+toXi_c^{prime 0}pi^{+}toXi_c^{0}gamma pi^+] < 0.06.$ Approximate values of the partial widths of the decays are extracted, which can be used to discriminate between models of the underlying quark structure of these excited states.
Using 13.7 fb^{-1} of data recorded by the CLEO detector at CESR, we report preliminary evidence for two new charmed baryons; one decaying into Xi_c^{0prime} pi^+ with the subsequent decay Xi_c^{0prime} to Xi_c^0 gamma, and its isospin partner decaying into Xi_c^{+prime} pi^- followed by Xi_c^{+prime} to Xi_c^+ gamma. We measure the following mass differences for the two states: M(Xi_c^0 gamma pi^+)-M(Xi_c^0)=318.4+-1.5+-2.9 MeV, and M(Xi_c^+ gamma pi^-)-M(Xi_c^+)=323.9+-pm1.4+-pm3.0 MeV. We interpret these new states as the J^P = (1/2)^-1 Xi_{c1} particles, the charmed-strange analogues of the Lambda_{c1}^+(2593).
We report measurements of the lifetimes of the $Lambda_c^+$, $Xi_c^+$ and $Xi_c^0$ charm baryons using proton-proton collision data at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8tev, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment. The charm baryons are reconstructed through the decays $Lambda_c^+to pK^-pi^+$, $Xi_c^+to pK^-pi^+$ and $Xi_c^0to pK^-K^-pi^+$, and originate from semimuonic decays of beauty baryons. The lifetimes are measured relative to that of the $D^+$ meson, and are determined to be begin{align*} tau_{Lambda_c^+} &= 203.5pm1.0pm1.3pm1.4~{rm fs}, ewline tau_{Xi_c^+} &= 456.8pm3.5pm2.9pm3.1~{rm fs}, ewline tau_{Xi_c^0} &= 154.5pm1.7pm1.6pm1.0~{rm fs}, end{align*} where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the uncertainty in the $D^+$ lifetime. The measurements are approximately 3--4 times more precise than the current world average values. The $Lambda_c^+$ and $Xi_c^+$ lifetimes are in agreement with previous measurements; however, the $Xi_c^0$ baryon lifetime is approximately 3.3 standard deviations larger than the world average value.
The $Xi_c^+ K^-$ mass spectrum is studied with a sample of $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.3 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment. The $Xi_c^+$ is reconstructed in the decay mode $p K^- pi^+$. Five new, narrow excited $Omega_c^0$ states are observed: the $Omega_c(3000)^0$, $Omega_c(3050)^0$, $Omega_c(3066)^0$, $Omega_c(3090)^0$, and $Omega_c(3119)^0$. Measurements of their masses and widths are reported.
