摘要

While the standard model is the most successful theory to describe all the interactions and constituents of elementary particle physics,it has been constantly scrutinized for over four decades.Weak decays of charm quarks can be used to measure the coupling strength between quarks in different families and serve as an ideal probe for CP violation.As the lowest charm-strange baryons with three different flavors,Ξc baryons (composed of csu or csd)have been extensively studied in experiments.In this study,we use state-of-the-art lattice QCD techniques to gener-ate 2+1 clover fermion ensembles with two lattice spacings,a =(0.108,0.080 fm).Then,we present the first ab-ini-tio lattice QCD calculation of the Ξc → Ξ form factors.Our theoretical results for the Ξc → Ξe+ve decay widths are consistent with and approximately two times more precise than the latest measurements by the ALICE and Belle col-laborations.Based on the latest experimental measurements,we independently obtain the quark-mixing matrix ele-ment |Vcs[,which is in good agreement with results from other theoretical approaches.
