Evidence for the semileptonic decays $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{\pm} π^{\mp} e^+ ν_e$

Using $4.5\, fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between $4.600$ and $4.699\,GeV$, we search for the semileptonic decays $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{+} π^{-} e^+ ν_e$ and $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{-} π^{+} e^+ ν_e$ for the first time. Assuming their branching fractions are equal under isospin symmetry, evidence for $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{\pm} π^{\mp} e^+ ν_e$ is reported with a significance of $3.6σ$. The corresponding branching fraction is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^\pmπ^\mp e^+ν_e) = (7.7^{+2.5}_{-2.3_{\rm stat.}}\pm1.3_{\rm syst.})\times 10^{-4}$, which is consistent with quark model predictions within two standard deviations.
