BESIII Reports Precision Studies and Searches for CP Asymmetries in the Inclusive Charmed-Baryon Decay
Recently, the BESIII Collaboration carried out a precision study of the inclusive charmed-baryon decay Λc⁺ → ΛX. The study reports the first measurement of the longitudinal polarization of the Λ hyperon produced in this decay and tests CP symmetry using two distinct observables, the decay branching fraction and polarization. BESIII also performed a high-precision measurement of the absolute branching fraction of this inclusive decay, improving the precision by about a factor of four over the previous result. The work has been published in Physical Review Letters under the title "Precision Studies and Searches for CP Asymmetries in the Inclusive Decay Λc⁺ → ΛX."
