   A comprehensive study of the angular distributions in the bottom-baryon decays ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_b^0\to {\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}{h}^{-}(h=\pi ,K)$, followed by ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}\to \mathrm{\Lambda }{h}^{+}$with $\mathrm{\Lambda }\to p{\pi }^{-}$or ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}\to p{K}_{\mathrm{S}}^0$decays, is performed using a data sample of proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9{\mathrm{fb}}^{-1}$collected by the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. The decay parameters and the associated charge-parity ( $CP$) asymmetries are measured, with no significant $CP$violation observed. For the first time, the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_b^0\to {\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}{h}^{-}$decay parameters are measured. The most precise measurements of the decay parameters $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\gamma$are obtained for ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}$decays and an independent measurement of the decay parameters for the strange-baryon $\mathrm{\Lambda }$decay is provided. The results deepen our understanding of weak decay dynamics in baryon decays. © 2024 CERN, for the LHCb Collaboration2024CERN

   We search for excited charmed baryons in the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}\eta$system using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $980{\mathrm{fb}}^{-1}$. The data were collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^{+}{e}^{-}$asymmetric-energy collider. No significant signals are found in the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}\eta$mass spectrum, including the known ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2880{)}^{+}$and ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2940{)}^{+}$. Clear ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2880{)}^{+}$and ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2940{)}^{+}$signals are observed in the $p{D}^0$mass spectrum. We set upper limits at 90% credibility level on ratios of branching fractions of ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2880{)}^{+}$and ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2940{)}^{+}$decaying to ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c^{+}\eta$relative to ${\mathrm{\Sigma }}_c\left(2455\right)\pi$of $<0.13$for the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2880{)}^{+}$and $<1.11$for the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2940{)}^{+}$. We measure ratios of branching fractions of ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2880{)}^{+}$and ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2940{)}^{+}$decaying to $p{D}^0$relative to ${\mathrm{\Sigma }}_c\left(2455\right)\pi$of $0.75\pm 0.03\left(\mathrm{stat}\right)\pm 0.07\left(\mathrm{syst}\right)$for the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2880{)}^{+}$and $3.59\pm 0.21\left(\mathrm{stat}\right)\pm 0.56\left(\mathrm{syst}\right)$for the ${\mathrm{\Lambda }}_c(2940{)}^{+}$.
