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 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 first observation of the $Omega_b^-toXi_c^+ K^- pi^-$ decay is reported using proton-proton collision data at centre-of-mass energies of $7$, $8$ and $13,mathrm{TeV}$ collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. Four excited $Omega_c^0$ baryons are observed in the $Xi_c^+ K^-$ mass projection of the $Omega_b^-toXi_c^+ K^- pi^-$ decays with significance exceeding five standard deviations. Their relative production rates, masses and natural widths are measured, and a test of spin hypotheses is performed. Moreover, the branching ratio of $Omega_b^-toXi_c^+ K^- pi^-$ is measured relative to the $Omega_b^-to Omega_c^0 pi^-$ decay mode and a precise measurement of the $Omega_b^-$ mass of $6044.3 pm 1.2 pm 1.1^{,+0.19}_{,-0.22},mathrm{MeV}$ is obtained.
The BaBar Collaboration has recently reported branching fractions for semileptonic decays of the $B$ meson into final states with charged and neutral $D_{1}(2420)$ and $D_{2}^{ast}(2460)$, two narrow orbitally excited charmed mesons. We evaluate these branching fractions within the framework of a constituent quark model in two steps, one which involves a semileptonic decay and the other one mediated by a strong process. Our results are in agreement with the experimental data.
We calculate the two-body strong decays of the orbitally excited scalar mesons $D_0^*(2400)$ and $D_J^*(3000)$ by using the relativistic Bethe-Salpeter (BS) method. $D_J^*(3000)$ was observed recently by the LHCb Collaboration, the quantum number of which has not been determined yet. In this paper, we assume that it is the $0^+(2P)$ state and obtain the transition amplitude by using the PCAC relation, low-energy theorem and effective Lagrangian method. For the $1P$ state, the total widths of $D_0^*(2400)^{0}$ and $ D_0^*(2400)^+$ are 226 MeV and 246 MeV, respectively. With the assumption of $0^+(2P)$ state, the widths of $D_J^*(3000)^0$ and $D_J^*(3000)^+$ are both about 131 MeV, which is close to the present experimental data. Therefore, $D_J^*(3000)$ is a strong candidate for the $2^3P_0$ state.
Using the full CDF Run II data sample, we report evidence for a new resonance, which we refer to as $B(5970)$, found simultaneously in the $B^0pi^+$ and $B^+pi^-$ mass distributions with a significance of 4.4 standard deviations. We further report the first study of resonances consistent with orbitally excited $B^{+}$ mesons and an updated measurement of the properties of orbitally excited $B^0$ and $B_s^0$ mesons. We measure the masses and widths of all states, as well as the relative production rates of $B_1$, $B_2^*$, and $B(5970)$ states and the branching fraction of the $B_{s2}^{*0}$ state to either $B^{*+} K^-$ and $B^{+} K^-$. Furthermore, we measure the production rates of the orbitally excited $B^{0,+}$ states relative to the $B^{0,+}$ ground state. The masses of the new $B(5970)$ resonances are $5978pm5(textrm{stat})pm12(textrm{syst}) textrm{ MeV/c}^{2}$ for the neutral state and $5961pm5(textrm{stat})pm12(textrm{syst}) textrm{ MeV/c}^{2}$ for the charged state, assuming that the resonance decays into $Bpi$ final states. The properties of the orbitally excited and the new $B(5970)^{0,+}$ states are compatible with isospin symmetry.
