/ Abstract
The processes $e^{+}e^{-} \to Δ^{++}\barΔ^{--}$ and $e^{+}e^{-}\to Δ^{++} \bar{p} π^{-} + c.c.$ are studied for the first time with $179~{\rm pb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies from $2.3094$ GeV to $2.6464$ GeV. No significant signal for the $e^{+}e^{-}\to Δ^{++}\barΔ^{--}$ process is observed and the upper limit of the Born cross section is estimated at each energy point. For the process $e^{+}e^{-} \to Δ^{++} \bar{p} π^{-} + c.c.$, a significant signal is observed at center-of-mass energies near 2.6454 GeV and the corresponding Born cross section is reported.
