Exclusive semileptonic decays of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda l^{+} l^{-}$ in supersymmetric theories

The weak decays of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda l^{+} l^{-}$ ($l=e, \mu$) are investigated in Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) and also in Supersymmetric (SUSY) SO(10) Grand Unified Models. In MSSM the special attention is paid to the Neutral Higgs Bosons (NHBs) as they make quite a large contribution in exclusive $B \to X_{s} l^{+} l^{-}$ decays at large $\tan{\beta}$ regions of parameter space of SUSY models, since part of SUSY contributions is proportional to $\tan^{3}{\beta}$. The analysis of decay rate, forward-backward asymmetries, lepton polarization asymmetries and the polarization asymmetries of $\Lambda$ baryon in $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda l^{+} l^{-}$ show that the values of these physical observables are greatly modified by the effects of NHBs. In SUSY SO(10) GUT model, the new physics contribution comes from the operators which are induced by the NHBs penguins and also from the operators having chirality opposite to that of the corresponding SM operators. SUSY SO(10) effects show up only in the decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda +\tau^{+} \tau^{-}$ where the longitudinal and transverse lepton polarization asymmetries are deviate significantly from the SM value while the effects in the decay rate, forward-backward asymmetries and polarization asymmetries of final state $\Lambda$ baryon are very mild. The transverse lepton polarization asymmetry in $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda +\tau^{+} \tau^{-}$ is almost zero in SM and in MSSM model. However, it can reach to -0.1 in SUSY SO(10) GUT model and could be seen at the future colliders; hence this asymmetry observable will provide us useful information to probe new physics and discriminate between different models.
