On Testing V-A in Lambda_b Decays

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We comment on a recent suggestion by Amundson, Rosner, Worah and Wise to test the chirality of the bb-quark decay coupling via polarized Λb\Lambda_b baryons produced in e+eZΛb+Xe^+e^-\rightarrow Z\rightarrow \Lambda_b +X. We study the effect of contributions from an amplitude in which a right-handed bb to cc current couples to a V-A lepton current.
