    We measure the ratio of branching fractions for the Υ(4S)\Upsilon (4S) decays to B+BB^+B^- and B0Bˉ0B^0\bar{B}{}^0 using B+J/ψ()K+B^+ \rightarrow J/\psi(\ell\ell) K^+ and B0J/ψ()K0B^0 \rightarrow J/\psi(\ell\ell) K^0 samples, where J/ψ()J/\psi(\ell\ell) stands for J/ψ+J/\psi \to \ell^+\ell^- (=e\ell = e or μ\mu), with 711711 fb1^{-1} of data collected at the Υ(4S)\Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector. We find the decay rate ratio of Υ(4S)B+B\Upsilon(4S) \rightarrow B^+B^- over Υ(4S)B0Bˉ0\Upsilon(4S) \rightarrow B^0\bar{B}{}^0 to be 1.065±0.012±0.019±0.0471.065\pm0.012\pm 0.019 \pm 0.047, which is the most precise measurement to date. The first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, and the third uncertainty is systematic due to the assumption of isospin symmetry in BJ/ψ()KB \to J/\psi(\ell\ell) K

    We present a study of a singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay Λc+pKS0KS0\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0K_S^0 and a Cabibbo-favored decay Λc+pKS0η\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0\eta based on 980 fb1\rm fb^{-1} of data collected by the Belle detector, operating at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+ee^+e^- collider. We measure their branching fractions relative to Λc+pKS0\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0: B(Λc+pKS0KS0)/B(Λc+pKS0)=(1.48±0.08±0.04)×102\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0K_S^0)/\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0)={(1.48 \pm 0.08 \pm 0.04)\times 10^{-2}} and B(Λc+pKS0η)/B(Λc+pKS0)=(2.73±0.06±0.13)×101\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0\eta)/\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0)={(2.73\pm 0.06\pm 0.13)\times 10^{-1}}. Combining with the world average B(Λc+pKS0)\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0), we have the absolute branching fractions: B(Λc+pKS0KS0)=(2.35±0.12±0.07±0.12)×104\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0K_S^0) = {(2.35\pm 0.12\pm 0.07 \pm 0.12 )\times 10^{-4}} and B(Λc+pKS0η)=(4.35±0.10±0.20±0.22)×103\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0\eta) = {(4.35\pm 0.10\pm 0.20 \pm 0.22 )\times 10^{-3}}. The first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise from the uncertainty on B(Λc+pKS0)\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0). The mode Λc+pKS0KS0\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0K_S^0 is observed for the first time and has a statistical significance of > ⁣10σ>\!10\sigma. The branching fraction of Λc+pKS0η\Lambda_c^+\to{}pK_S^0\eta has been measured with a threefold improvement in precision over previous results and is found to be consistent with the world average
