Elastic electron-proton scattering (e−p) and the spectroscopy of hydrogen atoms are the two traditional methods used to determine the proton charge radius (r p). About a decade ago, a new method using muonic hydrogen (µH) atoms 1 found a significant discrepancy with the compilation of all previous results 2 , creating the "proton radius puzzle". Despite intensive worldwide experimental and theoretical efforts, the "puzzle" remains unresolved. In fact, a new discrepancy was reported between the two most recent spectroscopic measurements on ordinary hydrogen 3, 4. Here, we report on the PRad experiment, the first high-precision e − p experiment since the emergence of the "puzzle". For the first time, a magnetic-spectrometerfree method was employed along with a windowless hydrogen gas target, which overcame several limitations of previous e − p experiments and reached unprecedented small angles.

We observe a signal for the doubly charmed baryon Xi(+)(cc) in the charged decay mode Xi(+)(cc)-->Lambda(+)(c)K-pi(+) in data from SELEX, the charm hadroproduction experiment at Fermilab. We observe an excess of 15.9 events over an expected background of 6.1+/-0.5 events, a statistical significance of 6.3sigma. The observed mass of this state is 3519+/-1 MeV/c(2). The Gaussian mass width of this state is 3 MeV/c(2), consistent with resolution; its lifetime is less than 33 fs at 90% confidence.
