Measurement of the absolute branching fractions of $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΛηπ^{+}$ and $Σ(1385)^{+}η$

Abstract

We study the decays $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΛηπ^{+}$ and $Σ(1385)^{+}η$ based on $Λ_{c}^{+}\barΛ_{c}^{-}$ pairs produced in $e^+e^-$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=4.6~\mbox{GeV}$, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $567\;\mbox{pb$^{-1}$}$. The data sample was accumulated with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The branching fractions are measured to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to Ληπ^{+})=(1.84\pm0.21({\rm{stat.}})\pm0.15({\rm{syst.}}))\%$ and $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to Σ(1385)^{+}η)=(0.91\pm0.18({\rm{stat.}})\pm0.09({\rm{syst.}}))\%$, constituting the most precise measurements to date.
