Partial decay widths and form factor implementation for the simulation of the $\Lambda ^+ _c$ decays in SHERPA

In this bachelor thesis the decays of the $\Lambda ^+ _c$ baryon were examined and simulation of the decay were improved. The decay table of this baryon was updated with the latest branching ratios and decay channels from the Particle Data Group. Different form factor models for the semileptonic decay of the $\Lambda ^+ _c$ were implemented into Sherpa and examined. The results were compared with experimental data.
