Abstract

We study the two-body baryonic BB and DsD_s decays based on the annihilation mechanism without the partial conservation of axial-vector current (PCAC) at the GeV scale. We demonstrate that the contributions of BΛpˉB^-\to \Lambda\bar p, BΣ0pˉB^-\to \Sigma^0 \bar p and Bˉs0ΛΛˉ\bar B^0_s\to \Lambda\bar \Lambda are mainly from the scalar and pseudoscalar currents with their branching ratios predicted to be around (3.5,5.3,5.3)×108(3.5,\,5.3,\,5.3)\times 10^{-8}, respectively, exactly the sizes of B(BBBˉ){\cal B}(B\to {\bf B\bar B'}) established by the data. We also apply the annihilation mechanism to all of the charmless two-body baryonic BB and DsD_s decays. In particular, we can explain B(Bˉ(s)0ppˉ){\cal B}(\bar B^0_{(s)}\to p\bar p) of order 10810^{-8} and B(Ds+pnˉ){\cal B}(D_s^+\to p\bar n) of order 10310^{-3}, which are from the axial-vector currents. In addition, the branching ratios of Bˉ0ΛΛˉ\bar B^0\to \Lambda\bar \Lambda, BnpˉB^-\to n\bar p, and BΣΣˉ0B^-\to \Sigma^- \bar\Sigma^0 are predicted to be (0.3,3.2,9.6)×108(0.3,\,3.2,\,9.6)\times 10^{-8}, which can be measured by LHCb and viewed as tests for the violation of PCAC at the GeV scale.
