Abstract

Using the detector ARGUS at the storage ring DORIS II of DESY, we have found evidence for the production of the charmed and doubly strange baryon Ω<sub>c</sub> through its decay channel Ξ<sup>−</sup>K<sup>−</sup>π<sup>+</sup>π<sup>+</sup>. Its mass has been determined to be ((2719.0±7.0±2.5)MeV/c<sup>2</sup>, and the product of production cross section and branching ratio the above channel to be (2.41±0.90±0.30) pb.
