Migliozzi1 CERN, Geneva, Switzerland G. D’Ambrosio, G. Miele, P. Santorelli Universita? Federico II and INFN, Napoli, Italy Abstract A novel method for a direct measurement of the exclusive Λ+c branch- ing ratios is here described. The approach is based on the peculiar topol- ogy of the quasi-elastic charm neutrino-induced events on nucleons. The intrinsic potentiality of the method is thoroughly discussed using a per- fect detector. As an application, the statistical accuracy reachable with existing data sample has been estimated. From a theoretical point of view, such measurement provides a better understanding of the baryonic b-decays. Submitted to Physics Letters B 1Now also at the INFN, Sezione di Napoli, Italy 1 Introduction There exists no direct measurement of BR(Λ+c → pK ?π+). However, using different assumptions and experimental data, two indirect determinations of the above branching ratio have been given [1, 2]. These two values are quite different, and thus it is likely that one of the procedures is incorrect. Note that, since the channel Λ+c → pK ?π+ is used for normalisation, a change in its branching ratio will affect most of the Λ+c exclusive decay widths. Here we propose a method, based on neutrino quasi-elastic charm production process, to directly measure the Λ+c branching ratios. This measurement, solving the above puzzle, will provide new insight on the underlying hadronic physics. This letter has the following structure: in Section 2 we discuss the two different determinations of BR(Λ+c → pK ?π+) and the physics impact of a direct measurement. In Section 3, the charm production in neutrino scattering is analysed by studying topology, kinematics and cross-sections of quasi-elastic processes and deep inelastic reactions, which a
