Observation of $\Xi_{c}(2930)^0$ and updated measurement of $B^{-} \to K^{-} \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{\Lambda}_{c}^{-}$ at Belle

Understand

We report the first observation of the $\Xi_{c}(2930)^0$ charmed-strange baryon with a significance greater than 5$\sigma$.

• The $\Xi_{c}(2930)^0$ is found in its decay to $K^- \Lambda_{c}^+$ in $B^{-} \to K^{-} \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{\Lambda}_{c}^{-}$ decays.
• The measured mass and width are $[2928.9 \pm 3.0(\rm stat.)^{+0.9}_{-12.0}(\rm syst.)]$ MeV/$c^{2}$ and $[19.5 \pm 8.4(\rm stat.) ^{+5.9}_{-7.9}(\rm syst.)]$ MeV, respectively, and the product branching fraction is ${\cal B}(B^{-} \to \Xi_{c}(2930)^0 \bar{\Lambda}_{c}^{-}) {\cal B}(\Xi_{c}(2930)^0 \to K^- \Lambda_{c}^{+})=[1.73 \pm 0.45(\rm stat.) \pm 0.21(\rm syst.)]\times 10^{-4}$.
• We also measure ${\cal B}(B^{-} \to K^{-} \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{\Lambda}_{c}^{-}) = [4.80 \pm 0.43(\rm stat.) \pm 0.60(\rm syst.)] \times 10^{-4}$ with improved precision, and search for the charmonium-like state $Y(4660)$ and its spin partner, $Y_{\eta}$, in the $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\bar{\Lambda}_{c}^{-}$ invariant mass spectrum.
