We present, for the first time, the six-fold differential decay density expression for $\Lambda^0_b\to\Lambda^+_{c} l^- \bar{\nu}_{l}$, taking into account the polarisation of the $\Lambda^0_b$ baryon and a complete basis of new physics…

We explore the strangeness-changing decays of the lightest hyperons into another baryon plus missing energy within and beyond the standard model (SM). In the SM these processes arise from the loop-induced quark transition $s\to d\nu\bar\nu$…

The decays $\Xi_b \to \Lambda_b \pi$ are strangeness changing weak transitions involving only the light diquark in the baryon. Thus these decays can test the properties of such diquarks, in particular the suggestions existing in the…

Using a $pp$ collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0~fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb detector, we present the first search for the strangeness-changing weak decay $\Xi_b^-\to\Lambda_b^0\pi^-$. No $b$ hadron…

The branching fraction of the rare decay $\Lambda_b^0 \rightarrow \Lambda \mu^+ \mu^-$ is measured as a function of $q^2$, the square of the dimuon invariant mass. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding…

We analyze the tauonic semileptonic baryon decays $\Lambda^0_b \to \Lambda^+_c + \tau^{-} +\bar \nu_{\tau}$ with particular emphasis on the lepton helicity flip contributions which vanish for zero lepton masses. We calculate the total rate,…

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}…

We study the semileptonic decays of the lowest-lying $bc$ baryons to the lowest-lying $cc$ baryons ($\Xi_{bc}^{(\prime*)}\to \Xi_{cc}^{(*)}$ and $\Omega_{bc}^{(\prime*)}\to \Omega_{cc}^{(*)}$), in the limit $m_b, m_c \gg…
