Measurements of Lambda(+)(c) branching fractions of Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes involving Lambda and Sigma(0)

We measure the branching ratios of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Lambda$ $K^+$ and $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Sigma^{0}$ $K^+$ %(measured with improved accuracy). relative to the Cabibbo-favored decay modes $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Lambda$ $\pi^+$ and $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Sigma^{0}$ $\pi^+$ to be $ 0.044 \pm 0.004 ~(\textnormal{stat.})~ \pm ~0.003 \~(\textnormal{syst.})$ and $ 0.039~ \pm ~0.005 ~(\textnormal{stat.})~ \pm \~0.003 ~(\textnormal{syst.})$, respectively. We set an upper limit on the branching ratio at 90 % confidence level for $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Lambda$ $K^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ to be $ 4.1 \times ~10^{-2}$ relative to $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Lambda$ $\pi^+$ and for $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Sigma^{0}$ $K^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ to be $ 2.0 \times ~10^{-2}$ relative to $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Sigma^{0}$ $\pi^+$. We also measure the branching fraction for the Cabibbo-favored mode $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Sigma^{0}$ $\pi^+$ relative to $\Lambda^+_c$ $\to$ $\Lambda$ $\pi^+$ to be $0.977~ \pm ~0.015 ~(\textnormal{stat.})~ \pm ~0.051 \~(\textnormal{syst.})$. This analysis was performed using a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 125 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the $BABAR$ detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ factory at SLAC.
