Description

Baryon states have provided excellent testing ground of QCD and our understanding of strong interactions. In recent years, there has been much experimental progress in charmed baryons from the Belle and BaBar experiments but there are no experimentally established doubly-charmed baryons. The existing evidence for doubly-charmed baryon \Xi_{cc}^+ from the SELEX experiment has not been supported by any other experiment. In this talk, we present the search for doubly charmed baryons in the e+ e- collision at or near \sqrt{s} = 10.58 GeV performed by Belle, with its full data sample of 980 fb^-1 produced by the KEKB collider and collected by the Belle detector. In addition, we report newly measured properties of the charmed-strange baryon, \Xi_{c}(2645)^+.
