Abstract

We investigate the decay of ΛbΛννˉ\Lambda_b\to\Lambda\nu\bar{\nu} with the polarized baryons of Λb\Lambda_b and Λ\Lambda. With the most general hadronic form factors, we first study the decay branching ratio and then derive the longitudinal, normal and transverse polarizations of Λ\Lambda in terms of the spin unit vectors of Λb\Lambda_b and Λ\Lambda and the momentum of Λ\Lambda . A polarization of Λb\Lambda_b is also discussed.
