Using data recorded by the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we report the first observation of an excited charmed baryon decaying into Ξc0π+. The state has mass difference M(Ξc0π+)−M(Ξc0) of 174.3±0.5±1.0MeV/c2, and a width of <3.1MeV/c2 (90% confidence level limit). We identify the new state as the Ξc*+, the isospin partner of the recently discovered Ξc*0.
CONST(NAME=EPS) is the parameter of the Peterson fragmentation function (C.Peterson et al., PR D27, 105 (1983)) D(N)/D(X) = FD(X) = const * (1/X)*1/(1- (1/X)-CONST(NAME=EPS)/(1-X))**2. Charged conjugate states are undestood.
Using the CLEO II detector operating at the e + e − Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR), we present evidence for new decay modes of the Ξ c + into Ξ 0 π + , Ξ 0 π + π 0 , and Ξ 0 π + π − π + . The branching ratios of these decay modes, relative to Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + , have been measured to be 0.55±0.13±0.09, 2.34±0.57±0.37, and 1.74±0.42±0.27, respectively.
Charge conjugate modes are imlied. P(P=3,C=MAX) is the maximum momentum value and given by P(P=3,C=MAX)**2 = E(P=1)**2 - M(P=3)**2).
We report the observation of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays \lcpkk\ and \lcpphi\ using data collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR. The latter mode, observed for the first time with significant statistics, is of interest as a test of color-suppression in charm decays. We have determined the branching ratios for these modes relative to \lcpkpi\ and compared our results with theory.

Using data recorded by the CLEO-II detector at CESR, we report the first observation of a narrow state decaying into $\Xi_c~+\pi~-$. The state has mass difference $M(\Xi_c~+\pi~-)-M(\Xi_c~+)$ of $178.2\pm0.5\pm1.0$ $\rm{MeV/c~2}$, and a width of $<5.5$ $\rm{MeV/c~2}$ (90\% confidence level limit). The most likely explanation of this new state is that it is the $J=\32$ spin excitation of the $\Xi_c~0$ charmed baryon.

Using data collected by the CLEO II detector, we have observed two states decaying to Λc+π+π−. Relative to the Λc+, their mass splittings are measured to be +307.5±0.4±1.0 and +342.2±0.2±0.5MeV/c2, respectively; this represents the first measurement of the less massive state. These two states are consistent with being orbitally excited, isospin zero Λc+ states.

We have measured the B0B¯0 mixing probability, χd, using a sample of 965 000 BB¯ pairs from Υ(4S) decays. Counting dilepton events, we find χd=0.157±0.016±0.018−0.021+0.028. Using tagged B0 events, we find χd=0.149±0.023±0.019±0.010. The first (second) error is statistical (systematic). The third error reflects a ±15% uncertainty in the assumption, made in both cases, that charged and neutral B pairs contribute equally to dilepton events. We also obtain a limit on the CP impurity in the Bd0 system, ‖Re(εB0)‖<0.045 at 90% C.L.

Mixing parameter from counting dilepton events. CONST(N=MIXING PARAM) = 1/(1 - LAMBDA(C,N)) * (N(2LEPTON+) + N(2LEPTON-))/(N(LEPTON+,LEPTON-) + N(2LEPTON+) + N(2LEPTON-)). LAMBDA(C,N) is the fraction of dilepton events coming from B+B- decays, LAMBDA(C,N) = f(B+)*Br(B+)**2/(f(B+)*Br(B+)**2 + f(B0)*Br(B0)**2), where f(B+),f(B0) are the productiron fractions of the charged and neutral B's at the UPSI(4S), and Br(B+), Br(B0) are the semileptonic brancing fractions.

Using the CLEO-II detector at CESR, we have observed the D s 1 (2536) + in the decay modes D s1 + →D ∗0 K + and D ∗+ K S + , and measured its fragmentation and production ratios. Using the helicity angle distribution of the daugter D ∗0 , we obtain new evidence for the assignment of 1 + for the spin and parity of the D s 1 + . We also set upper limits on the decays D s1 + →D s ∗+ λ, D 0 K + and D + K s 0 .

We report results on inclusive production of the charmed baryon Λc+ from e+e− annihilations at s=10.5 GeV. Measurements are presented of the inclusive cross section times branching fraction for the continuum production of Λc+ as observed in six different decay modes, and of a new, improved value of the Λc+ mass. The inclusive cross section times the branching fraction into pK−π+ is measured to be 10.0±1.5±1.5 pb summed over all xp. The branching fractions of Λc+ into pK¯0, pK¯0π+π−, Λπ+, Λπ+π−π+, and Ξ−K+π+ relative to that into pK−π+ are measured to be 0.44±0.07±0.05, 0.43±0.12±0.04, 0.18±0.03±0.03, 0.65±0.11±0.12, and 0.15±0.04±0.03, respectively. The Λc+ mass is measured to be 2284.7±0.6±0.7 MeV/c2. The measured momentum distributions for continuum production of Λc+ are compared to analytical fragmentation functions and to other measurements.
