Abstract

Using data collected in the region of the γ\(4S\) resonance with the CLEO II detector operating at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR), we present the first observation of B mesons decaying into the charmed strange baryons Ξ_c⁰ and Ξ_c⁺. We find 79+/-27 Ξ_c⁰ and 125+/-28 Ξ_c⁺ candidates from B decays, leading to product branching fractions of B\(B^¯⤏_c⁰X\)B\(_c⁰⤏Ξ^-π⁺\) = \(0.144+/-0.048+/-0.021\)×10-3 and B\(B^¯⤏Ξ+cX\)B\(Ξ+C⤏Ξ^-π⁺π⁺\) = \(0.453+/-0.096+ 0.085- 0.065\)×10⁻³.
