Abstract

Recently, Stech found form factor relations for heavy to light transitions based on two simple dynamical assumptions for spectator partical. In this work we generalize his approach to the case of baryons and find that for ΛQΛ\Lambda_{Q}\to\Lambda (Q=bQ=b or cc) only one independent form factor remains in limit mQm_{Q}\to\infty. Furthermore, combining with the model of Guo and Kroll we determine both of the two form factors for ΛQΛ\Lambda_{Q}\to\Lambda in the heavy quark limit. The results are applied to ΛbΛ+J/ψ\Lambda_{b}\to\Lambda + J/\psi which is not clarified both theoretically and experimentally. It is found that the branching ratio of ΛbΛ+J/ψ\Lambda_{b}\to\Lambda + J/\psi is of order 10^{-5}.
