The doubly charmed baryon decay $Xi_{cc}^{++} rightarrow Xi_{c}^{+} pi^{+}$ is observed for the first time, with a statistical significance of $5.9sigma$, confirming a recent observation of the baryon in the $Lambda_c^{+} K^{-} pi^{+} pi^{+}$ final state. The data sample used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $1.7,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $13mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. The $Xi_{cc}^{++}$ mass is measured to be begin{equation} onumber 3620.6pm 1.5~(text{stat})pm 0.4~(text{syst}) pm 0.3~(Xi_{c}^{+})~text{MeV}/it{c}^{2}, end{equation} and is consistent with the previous result. The ratio of branching fractions between the decay modes is measured to be begin{equation} onumber frac{mathcal{B} (Xi_{cc}^{++} rightarrow Xi_{c}^{+} pi^{+}) times mathcal{B}(Xi_{c}^{+} rightarrow pK^{-}pi^{+})} {mathcal{B} (Xi_{cc}^{++} rightarrow Lambda_c^{+} K^{-} pi^{+} pi^{+}) times mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^{+} rightarrow pK^{-}pi^{+})} = 0.035pm 0.009~(text{stat}) pm 0.003~(text{syst}). end{equation}

A highly significant structure is observed in the $Lambda_c^+K^-pi^+pi^+$ mass spectrum, where the $Lambda_c^+$ baryon is reconstructed in the decay mode $pK^-pi^+$. The structure is consistent with originating from a weakly decaying particle, identi fied as the doubly charmed baryon $Xi_{cc}^{++}$. The difference between the masses of the $Xi_{cc}^{++}$ and $Lambda_c^+$ states is measured to be $1334.94 pm 0.72 (mathrm{stat}) pm 0.27 (mathrm{syst}~mathrm{MeV}/c^2$, and the $Xi_{cc}^{++}$ mass is then determined to be $3621.40 pm 0.72 (mathrm{stat}) pm 0.27 (mathrm{syst} pm 0.14 , (Lambda_c^+)~mathrm{MeV}/c^2$, where the last uncertainty is due to the limited knowledge of the $Lambda_c^+$ mass. The state is observed in a sample of proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.7 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, and confirmed in an additional sample of data collected at 8 TeV.
A search for the doubly charmed baryon $Xi_{cc}^{+}$ is performed through its decay to the $Lambda_c^+ K^- pi^+$ final state, using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13$mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. The data correspond to a total integrated luminosity of $9,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. No significant signal is observed in the mass range from 3.4 to 3.8$mathrm{,Gekern -0.1em V}/c^2$. Upper limits are set at $95%$ credibility level on the ratio of the $Xi_{cc}^{+}$ production cross-section times the branching fraction to that of $Lambda_c^+$ and $Xi_{cc}^{++}$ baryons. The limits are determined as functions of the $Xi_{cc}^{+}$ mass for different lifetime hypotheses, in the rapidity range from 2.0 to 4.5 and the transverse momentum range from 4 to 15$mathrm{,Gekern -0.1em V}/c$.
The first measurement of the lifetime of the doubly charmed baryon $Xi_{cc}^{++}$ is presented, with the signal reconstructed in the final state $Lambda_c^+ K^- pi^+ pi^+$. The data sample used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $1.7,mathrm{f b}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $13mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. The $Xi_{cc}^{++}$ lifetime is measured to be $0.256,^{+0.024}_{-0.022}{,rm (stat),} pm 0.014 {,rm(syst)}mathrm{,ps}$.
Stimulated by the new experimental LHCb findings associated with the $Omega_c$ states, some of which we have described in a previous work as being dynamically generated through meson-baryon interaction, we have extended this approach to make predicti ons for new $Xi_{cc}$ molecular states in the $C=2$, $S=0$ and $I=1/2$ sector. These states manifest themselves as poles in the solution of the Bethe-Salpeter equation in coupled channels. The kernels of this equation were obtained using the Lagrangians coming from the hidden local gauge symmetry, where the interactions are dominated by the exchange of light vector mesons. The extension of this approach to the heavy sector stems from the realization that the dominant interaction corresponds to having the heavy quarks as spectators, which implies the preservation of the heavy quark symmetry. As a result, we get several states: two states from the pseudoscalar meson-baryon interaction with $J^P=1/2^-$, and masses around $4080$ and $4090$ MeV, and one at $4150$ MeV for $J^P=3/2^-$. Furthermore, from the vector meson-baryon interaction we get three states degenerate with $J^P=1/2^-$ and $3/2^-$ from $4220$ MeV to $4330$ MeV, and two more states around $4280$ MeV and $4410$ MeV, degenerate with $J^P=1/2^-,, 3/2^-$ and $5/2^-$.
We report the first observation of the decay $Lambda^{+}_{c} rightarrow p K^{+} pi^{-}$ using a 980 $mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. This is the first doubly Cabibbo-su ppressed decay of a charmed baryon to be observed. We measure the branching ratio of this decay with respect to its Cabibbo-favored counterpart to be $mathcal{B}(Lambda^{+}_{c} rightarrow p K^{+} pi^{-})/mathcal{B}(Lambda^{+}_{c} rightarrow p K^{-} pi^{+})=(2.35pm0.27pm0.21)times10^{-3}$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
