Abstract

We perform a general SU(3)F_F analysis of bccˉs(d)b\rightarrow c\bar{c}s(d) decays of members of the beauty baryon antitriplet to a member of the light baryon octet and a singlet. Under several reasonable assumptions we found A(Ξb0ΛS)/A(Ξb0Ξ0S)1/6VcbVcd/(VcbVcs)\left\vert \mathcal{A}(\Xi_b^0\rightarrow \Lambda S)/ \mathcal{A}(\Xi_b^0\rightarrow \Xi^0 S)\right\vert\approx 1/\sqrt{6}\, \left\vert V_{cb}^* V_{cd} / (V_{cb}^* V_{cs})\right\vert and A(ΛbΣ0S)/A(ΛbΛS)0.02\left\vert\mathcal{A}(\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Sigma^0 S)/\mathcal{A}(\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Lambda S)\right\vert \sim 0.02. These two relations have been recently probed by LHCb for the case of S=J/ψS=J/\psi. The former agrees with the measurement, while for the latter our prediction lies close to the upper bound set by LHCb.
