Abstract
A search for charmed baryons decaying to D^0p reveals two states: the Λ_c(2880)^+ baryon and a previously unobserved state at a mass of [2939.8±1.3(stat)±1.0(syst)] MeV/c^2 and with an intrinsic width of [17.5±5.2(stat)±5.9(syst)] MeV. Consistent and significant signals are observed for the K^-π^+ and K^-π^+π^-π^+ decay modes of the D^0 in 287 fb^(-1) annihilation data recorded by the BABAR detector at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV. There is no evidence in the D^+p spectrum of doubly charged partners. The mass and intrinsic width of the Λ_c(2880)^+ baryon and relative yield of the two baryons are also measured.
