We review the two and three-body baryonic $B$ decays with the dibaryon (${\bf B\bar B'}$) as the final states. Accordingly, we summarize the experimental data of the branching fractions, angular asymmetries, and $CP$ asymmetries. Using the…
We study the three-body baryonic B decays of $B\to p\bar{p}(K^{*},\rho)$ in the standard model. The baryonic matrix elements are calculated in terms of the SU(3) flavor symmetry and the QCD power counting rules within the the perturbative…
Motivated by recent data on B-> p pbar K decay, we study various charmless three-body baryonic B decay modes, including Lambda pbar pi, Sigma0 pbar pi, p pbar pi, p pbar Kbar0, in a factorization approach. These modes have rates of order…

We report first measurements of the doubly charmed baryonic B decays B->Lambda_c+Lambda_c-K. The B+->Lambda_c+Lambda_c-K+ decay is observed with a branching fraction of (6.5+1.0-0.9+-1.1+-3.4)x10^{-4} and a statistical significance of…

We report the results of a study of neutral B meson decays to the D^0 pi+ pi- final state, where the D^0 is fully reconstructed. The results are obtained from an event sample containing 388 million BB-bar -meson pairs collected in the Belle…
We study the charmless two-body decays of $b$-baryons $(\Lambda_b$, $\Xi_b^-$, $\Xi_b^0)$. We find that ${\cal B}(\Xi_b^-\to \Lambda \rho^-)=(2.08^{+0.69}_{-0.51})\times 10^{-6}$ and ${\cal B}(\Xi_b^0\to \Sigma^+…
We present a systematical study of two-body and three-body charmless baryonic B decays. Branching ratios for two-body modes are in general very small, typically less than $10^{-6}$, except that $\B(B^-\to p \bar\Delta^{--})\sim 1\times…
Using a data sample of 21.3 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the Belle detector, three body charmless decays $B^+\to K^+ h^+ h^-$ have been studied. With no assumptions on the intermediate mechanisms, the following branching fractions have been…
We study the three-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B\bar B'}M$ decays with $M$ representing the $\eta$ or $\eta'$ meson. Particularly, we predict that ${\cal B}(B^-\to\Lambda\bar p\eta,\Lambda\bar p\eta')=(5.3\pm 1.4,3.3\pm 0.7)\times 10^{-6}$ or…
Using 29.1fb-1 of data accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) with the Belle detector at KEKB, we have studied the decay modes B0bar->Lambda_c+ pbar pi+pi-, B- -> Lambda_c+ pbar pi-, and B0bar ->Lambda_c+ pbar. We report branching fractions of…
The baryonic decay $D^+_s\rightarrow p\bar{n}$ is observed, and the corresponding branching fraction is measured to be $(1.21\pm0.10\pm0.05)\times10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and second systematic. The data sample…
We present studies of two-body and three-body charmed baryonic B decays in a sample of 232 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II $e^+e^-$ storage ring. The branching fractions of the decays $\bar{B}^{0}…
Within the framework of $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry, we investigate two-body doubly charmful baryonic $B\to{\bf B}_c\bar{\bf B}'_c$ decays, where ${\bf B}_c\bar{\bf B}'_c$ represents the anti-triplet charmed dibaryon. We determine the $SU(3)_f$…

We point out new ways to search for charmless baryonic B decays: baryon pair production in association with $\eta^\prime$ is very likely as large as or even a bit larger than two body $K\pi/\pi\pi$ modes. We extend our argument, in weaker…
