${{\mathit \Xi}_{{c}}^{+}}$ MASS

INSPIRE   PDGID:

S045M

The fit uses the ${{\mathit \Xi}_{{c}}^{+}}$ and ${{\mathit \Xi}_{{c}}^{0}}$ mass and mass-difference measurements.

BIAGI 1983 sees a single peak (stated significance about 6 standard deviations) in the ${{\mathit \Lambda}}{{\mathit K}^{-}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}$ mass spectrum. COTEUS 1987 sees $\mathit two$ peaks in the same spectrum, one at the ${{\mathit \Xi}_{{c}}^{+}}$ mass, the other 75 MeV lower. The latter is attributed to ${{\mathit \Xi}_{{c}}^{+}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \Sigma}^{0}}{{\mathit K}^{-}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}$ $\rightarrow$ ( ${{\mathit \Lambda}}{{\mathit \gamma}}$) ${{\mathit K}^{-}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}$ , with the ${{\mathit \gamma}}$ unseen. The $\mathit combined$ significance of the double peak is stated to be 5.5 standard deviations. But the absence of any trace of a lower peak in BIAGI 1983 seems to us to throw into question the interpretation of the lower peak of COTEUS 1987 .
