Description

The first observation of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed Ωc0ΩK+ and Ωc0Ξπ+ decays is reported, using proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4fb1, collected with the LHCb detector between 2016 and 2018. The branching fraction ratios are measured to be B(Ωc0ΩK+)B(Ωc0Ωπ+)=[6.08±0.51(stat)±0.40(syst)]%,B(Ωc0Ξπ+)B(Ωc0Ωπ+)=[15.81±0.87(stat)±0.44(syst)±0.16(ext)]%. In addition, using the Ωc0Ωπ+ decay channel, the Ωc0 baryon mass is measured to be M(Ωc0)=2695.28±0.07(stat)±0.27(syst)±0.30(ext)MeV, improving the precision of the previous world average by a factor of 4.
