Semileptonic $Ξ_c$ baryon decays in the light cone QCD sum rules
Form factors of the weak $Ξ_c \to Ξ(Λ)$ transitions are calculated within the light cone QCD sum rules. The pollutions coming from the contribution of the negative parity $Ξ_c^*$ baryon is eliminated by considering the combinations of sum rules corresponding to the different Lorentz structures. Having obtained the form factors, the branching ratios of the $Ξ_c \to Ξ(Λ) \ell ν$ decays are also calculated, and our predictions are compared with the results of other approaches as well as the measurements done by BELLE and ALICE Collaborations.
