Form factors of the weak $\Xi_c \to \Xi(\Lambda)$ transitions are calculated within the light cone QCD sum rules. The pollutions coming from the contribution of the negative parity $\Xi_c^*$ baryon is eliminated by considering the…

In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…

In this paper, decay widths of the doubly heavy baryons ($\Xi_{cc} ~\text{and} ~\Xi_{bc}$) production are theoritically calculated in the whole phase space through $W^+ \to \Xi_{cc}+ \bar{c}+\bar{s}$ and $W^+ \to \Xi_{bc}+ \bar{b}+\bar{s}$,…

It is usually assumed that the production of baryons in $B$ meson decays is induced primarily by the quark level process $b\to c\bar ud$, where the charm quark hadronizes into a charmed baryon. With this assumption, the $\Lambda_c$ momentum…
