Measurements of branching fractions and asymmetry parameters of $ {\Xi}_c^0\to \Lambda {\overline{K}}^{\ast 0} $, $ {\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^0{\overline{K}}^{\ast 0} $, and $ {\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^{+}{K}^{\ast -} $ decays at Belle

Using a data sample of 980 fb -1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e - collider, we study the processes of ${\Xi}_c^0\to \Lambda {\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}$, ${\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^0{\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}$, and ${\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^{+}{K}^{\ast -}$ for the first time. The relative branching ratios to the normalization mode of ${\Xi}_c^0\to {\Xi}^{-}{\pi}^{+}$ are measured to be ${\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to \Lambda {\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}\right)/\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Xi}^{-}{\pi}^{+}\right)=0.18\pm 0.02\left(\mathrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.01\left(\mathrm{syst}.\right),\\ {}\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^0{\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}\right)/\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Xi}^{-}{\pi}^{+}\right)=0.69\pm 0.03\left(\mathrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.03\left(\mathrm{syst}.\right),\\ {}\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^{+}{K}^{\ast -}\right)/\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Xi}^{-}{\pi}^{+}\right)=0.34\pm 0.06\left(\mathrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.02\left(\mathrm{syst}.\right),\end{array}}$ where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. We obtain ${\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to \Lambda {\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}\right)=\left(3.3\pm 0.3\left(\mathrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.2\left(\mathrm{syst}.\right)\pm 1.0\left(\mathrm{ref}.\right)\right)\times {10}^{-3},\\ {}\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^0{\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}\right)=\left(12.4\pm 0.5\left(\mathrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.5\left(\mathrm{syst}.\right)\pm 3.6\left(\mathrm{ref}.\right)\right)\times {10}^{-3},\\ {}\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^{+}{K}^{\ast 0}\right)=\left(6.1\pm 1.0\left(\mathrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.4\left(\mathrm{syst}.\right)\pm 1.8\left(\mathrm{ref}.\right)\right)\times {10}^{-3},\end{array}}$ where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and from $\mathcal{B}\left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Xi}^{-}{\pi}^{+}\right)$, respectively. The asymmetry parameters $\alpha \left({\Xi}_c^0\to \Lambda {\overline{K}}^{\ast 0}\right)$ and $\alpha \left({\Xi}_c^0\to {\Sigma}^{+}{K}^{\ast -}\right)$ are 0.15 ± 0.22(stat.) ± 0.04(syst.) and -0.52 ± 0.30(stat.) ± 0.02(syst.), respectively, where the uncertainties are statistical followed by systematic.
