We report a measurement of the lifetime of the $Omega_c^0$ baryon using proton-proton collision data at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8~TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. The sample consists of about 1000 $Omega_b^-toOmega_c^0mu^-bar{ u}_{mu} X$ signal decays, where the $Omega_c^0$ baryon is detected in the $pK^-K^-pi^+$ final state and $X$ represents possible additional undetected particles in the decay. The $Omega_c^0$ lifetime is measured to be $tau_{Omega_c^0} = 268pm24pm10pm2$ fs, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and from the uncertainty in the $D^+$ lifetime, respectively. This value is nearly four times larger than, and inconsistent with, the current world-average value.

The FOCUS experiment(FNAL-E831) has used two channels, $Omega^- pi^+$ and $Xi^-K^- pi^+ pi^+$,to measure the lifetime of the $Omega_c^0$ charmed baryon. From a sample of $64 pm 14$ signal events at a mass of 2.698 GeV/$c^2$, we measure an $Omega_c^0$ lifetime of $72 pm 11$ (stat.) $pm 11$ (sys.) fs, substantially improving upon the current world average.
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 the decays of the $Omega_c^0$ charmed baryon into had ronic final states. We report the most precise measurements to date of the relative branching fractions of the $Omega_c^0$ into $Omega^-pi^+pi^0$, $Omega^-pi^+pi^-pi^+$, $Xi^-K^-pi^+pi^+$, and $Xi^0K^-pi^+$, as well as the first measurements of the branching fractions of the $Omega_c^0$ into $Xi^-bar{K}^0pi^+$, $Xi^0bar{K}^0$, and $Lambda bar{K}^0bar{K}^0$, all with respect to the $Omega^-pi^+$ decay. In addition, we investigate the resonant substructure of these modes. Finally, we present a limit on the branching fraction for the decay $Omega_c^0toSigma^+K^-K^-pi^+$.
Using a proton-proton collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$ collected by LHCb at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, about 3800 $Xi_b^0toXi_c^+pi^-$, $Xi_c^+to pK^-pi^+$ signal decays are reconstructed. Fr om this sample, the first measurement of the $Xi_b^0$ baryon lifetime is made, relative to that of the $Lambda_b^0$ baryon. The mass differences $M(Xi_b^0)-M(Lambda_b^0)$ and $M(Xi_c^+)-M(Lambda_c^+)$ are also measured with precision more than four times better than the current world averages. The resulting values are $frac{tau_{Xi_b^0}}{tau_{Lambda_b^0}} = 1.006pm0.018pm0.010$, $M(Xi_b^0) - M(Lambda_b^0) = 172.44pm0.39pm0.17 MeV/c^2$, $M(Xi_c^+) - M(Lambda_c^+) = 181.51pm0.14pm0.10 MeV/c^2$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The relative rate of $Xi_b^0$ to $Lambda_b^0$ baryon production is measured to be $frac{f_{Xi_b^0}}{f_{Lambda_b^0}}frac{{cal{B}}(Xi_b^0toXi_c^+pi^-)}{{cal{B}}(Lambda_b^0toLambda_c^+pi^-)}frac{{cal{B}}(Xi_c^+to pK^-pi^+)}{{cal{B}}(Lambda_c^+to pK^-pi^+)} = (1.88pm0.04pm0.03)times10^{-2}$, where the first factor is the ratio of fragmentation fractions, $btoXi_b^0$ relative to $btoLambda_b^0$. Relative production rates as functions of transverse momentum and pseudorapidity are also presented.
The ratio of the Lambda b baryon lifetime to that of the B0 meson is measured using 1.0/fb of integrated luminosity in 7 TeV center-of-mass energy pp collisions at the LHC. The Lambda b baryon is observed for the first time in the decay mode Lambda b -> J/psi pK-, while the B0 meson decay used is the well known B0 -> J/psi pi+K- mode, where the pi+ K- mass is consistent with that of the K*0(892) meson. The ratio of lifetimes is measured to be 0.976 +/- 0.012 +/- 0.006, in agreement with theoretical expectations based on the heavy quark expansion. Using previous determinations of the B0 meson lifetime, the Lambda b lifetime is found to be 1.482 +/- 0.018 +/- 0.012 ps. In both cases the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.

We report results from a study of the charmed double strange baryons Omega_c^0 and Omega_c^{*0} at Belle. The Omega_c^0 is reconstructed using the Omega_c^0 --> Omega^- pi^+ decay mode, and its mass is measured to be (2693.6 pm 0.3 {+1.8 atop -1.5}) MeV/c^2. The Omega_c^{*0} baryon is reconstructed in the Omega_c^0 gamma mode. The mass difference M_{Omega_c^{*0}} - M_{Omega_c^0} is measured to be (70.7 pm 0.9 {+0.1 atop -0.9}) MeV/c^2. The analysis is performed using 673 fb^{-1} of data on and near the Upsilon(4S) collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider.
