Abstract

We study the four body decay ΛbΛ(pπ)μ+μ\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda ( \rightarrow p \pi^-) \mu^{+} \mu^{-} in the Randall-Sundrum model with custodial protection (RSc)(\text{RS}_c). By considering the constraints coming from the direct searches of the lightest Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitation of the gluon, electroweak precision tests, the measurements of the Higgs signal strengths at the LHC and from ΔF=2\Delta F=2 flavor observables, we perform a scan of the parameter space of the RSc\text{RS}_c model and obtain the maximum allowed deviations of the Wilson coefficients ΔC7,  9,  10()\Delta C^{(\prime)}_{7,\; 9,\; 10} for different values of the lightest KK gluon mass Mg(1)M_{g^{(1)}}. Later, their implications on the observables such as differential branching fraction, longitudinal polarization of the daughter baryon Λ\Lambda, forward-backward asymmetry with respect to leptonic, hadronic and combined lepton-hadron angles are discussed where we present the analysis of these observables in different bins of di-muon invariant mass squared s  (=q2)s\;(= q^2). It is observed that with the current constraints the Wilson coefficients in RSc\text{RS}_c model show slight deviations from their Standard Model values and hence can not accommodate the discrepancies between the Standard Model calculations of various observables and the LHCb measurements in Λb\Lambda_b decays.
