Measurement of branching fractions of $\Lambda_{c}^{+}$ decays to $\Sigma^{+} K^{+} K^{-}$, $\Sigma^{+}\phi$ and $\Sigma^{+} K^{+} \pi^{-}(\pi^{0})$

Abstract

Based on 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ data taken at seven center-of-mass energies ranging from 4.600 to 4.699 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we measure the branching fractions of $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}+hadrons$ relative to $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow \Sigma^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$. Combining with the world average branching fraction of $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow \Sigma^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$, their branching fractions are measured to be $(0.377\pm0.042\pm0.018\pm0.021)\%$ for $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+} K^{+} K^{-}$, $(0.200\pm0.023\pm0.010\pm0.011)\%$ for $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+} K^{+} \pi^{-}$, $(0.414\pm0.080\pm0.029\pm0.023)\%$ for $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}\phi$ and $(0.197\pm0.036\pm0.008\pm0.011)\%$ for $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}K^{+} K^{-}$(non-$\phi$). In all the above results, the first uncertainties are statistical, the second are systematic and the third are from external input of the branching fraction of $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow \Sigma^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$. Since no signal for $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+} K^{+} \pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ is observed, the upper limit of its branching fraction is determined to be 0.11\% at the 90$\%$ confidence level.
