Abstract
We report the first observation (103 +/- 17 events) of the decay LAMBD A(c)+ --> SIGMA-pi+pi+ and the charge conjugate. A measurement of the relative branching ratio GAMMA(LAMBDA(c)+ --> SIGMA-pi+pi+)/GAMMA(LAMB DA(c)+ --> SIGMA+pi+pi-) = 0.53 +/- 0.15 (stat) +/- 0.07 (sys) is also presented.
