Abstract

The Λ_c⁺→pK^-π⁺ yield has been measured in a sample of two-jet continuum events containing both a charm tag ("D̄") as well as an antiproton (e⁺e^-→D̄p̄X), with the antiproton in the hemisphere opposite the D̄ (measurement of charge conjugate modes is implicit throughout). Under the hypothesis that such selection criteria tag e⁺e^-→D̄p̄Λ_c⁺X events, the Λ_c⁺→pK^-π⁺ branching fraction can be determined by measuring the pK^-π⁺ yield in the same hemisphere as the antiprotons in our D̄p̄X sample. Three types of D charm tags are used, π_soft^- (from D*^-→D̄⁰π_soft^-), electrons (from D̄→Xe^-v), and fully reconstructed D̄⁰→K⁺π^- or D^- →K⁺π^-π^- or D_s^-→φπ^-. Combining our results obtained from the three independent charm tags, we obtain B(Λ_c⁺→pK^-π ⁺)=(5.0±0.5±1.2)%.
