Abstract

In view of the recent observation of CPCP-violation in bottom baryon decays, we explore CPCP-asymmetry relations in charmless four-body decays of bottom baryons featuring fully charged hadronic final states. Starting with a general effective Hamiltonian, we derive amplitude relations among various decay modes within the framework of UU-spin symmetry. These relations lead to symmetry-based predictions for CPCP-violating rate asymmetries in UU-spin conjugate decay channels. Furthermore, we demonstrate that all leading-order amplitude relations are violated once UU-spin breaking effects are taken into account.
