The width of a recently discovered excited charmed-strange baryon, a
candidate for a state Ξc∗ with spin 3/2, is calculated. In the absence of
configuration mixing between the ground-state (spin-1/2) charmed-strange baryon
Ξc(a) and the spin-1/2 state Ξc(s) lying about 95 MeV above it,
one finds Γ~(Ξc∗→Ξc(a)π)=(3/4)Γ~(Ξ∗→Ξπ) and Γ~(Ξc∗→Ξc(s)π)=(1/4)Γ~(Ξ∗→Ξπ), where the tilde denotes the partial
width with kinematic factors removed. Assuming a kinematic factor for P-wave
decay of pcm3, one predicts Γ(Ξc∗→Ξc(a)π)=2.3 MeV, while the Ξc∗→Ξc(s)π channel is closed. Some
suggestions are given for detecting the Σc∗, the spin-3/2 charmed
nonstrange baryon, and the Ωc∗, the spin-3/2 charmed doubly-strange
baryon.Comment: 11 pages, latex, 2 uuencoded figures sent separatel
