Motivated by the recent CPV observation, we investigate the CPV of b-baryon charmless four body decays under the U-spin symmetry. However, we find that only U-spin symmetry cannot provide effective predictions, particularly for $\Lambda_b$…
In this work, we study the decays $\Lambda_c \to (\Lambda, n) \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ ($\ell = \mu, e$) within a model-independent framework. We calculate the helicity amplitudes for all possible four-fermion operators, including the interactions…
Inspired by the newly observed $\Omega_b$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we investigate the two-body strong decays of the low-lying $\lambda$-mode $\Omega_b$ baryons up to $N=2$ shell using the chiral quark model within the $j$-$j$…
The decay $B^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{\Lambda}_c^- K_S^0$ is studied at LHCb for the first time using proton-proton collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV, corresponding to an…
We investigate the rare decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ which receives both short and long distance contributions. We estimate the long distance contributions and find them very small. The form factors are obtained from $\Lambda_c \to…
Taking into account the $\Lambda$ baryon distribution amplitudes and the most general form of the interpolating current of the $\Lambda_{b}$, the semileptonic $\Lambda_{b}\rar \Lambda \ell^+\ell^- $ transition is investigated in the…
We study nonleptonic Lambda_b -> Lambda_c pi, Sigma_c pi and Sigma_c^* pi decays in the limit m_b, m_c, E_pi >> Lambda_{QCD} using the soft-collinear effective theory. Here Sigma_c = Sigma_c(2455) and Sigma_c^* = Sigma_c(2520). At leading…
In our previous work, based on the $SU(6)$ spin-flavor wave function, we regard $\Lambda$ and $p$ as composed of different quark-diquark configurations and established the Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equations of configurations for quark and scalar…
Heavy-quark spin symmetry (HQSS) implies that in the direct decay of a heavy quarkonium with spin $S$, only lower lying heavy quarkonia with the same spin $S$ can be produced. However, this selection rule, expected to work very well in the…
We study the spin correlations to probe time-reversal~(T) asymmetries in the decays of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda V ~(V=\phi, \rho^0, \omega, K^{*0})$. The eigenstates of the T-odd operators are obtained along with definite angular momenta. We…
Semileptonic $\Lambda_b$ decays are investigated in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach and the quark-diquark picture of baryons. The decay form factors are expressed through the overlap…
We report the results of several studies of the Lambda_c+pi+pi-X final state in continuum e+e- annihilation data collected by the Belle detector. An analysis of angular distributions in Lambda_c(2880)->Sigma_c(2455)pi decays strongly favors…
The decay $\Xi^-_b \to \pi^- \Lambda_b$ has recently been observed by the LHCb Collaboration at CERN. In contrast to most weak decays of $b$-flavored baryons, this process involves the decay of the strange quark in $\Xi_b$, and thus has…
The semileptonic decays of Lambda_c and Lambda_b are treated in the framework of a constituent quark model. Both nonrelativistic and semirelativistic Hamiltonians are used to obtain the baryon wave functions from a fit to the spectra, and…
Motivated by recent $R_D$, $R_{D^*}$ and $R_{J/\psi}$ anomalies in $B\to D\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$, $B\to D^*\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ and $B_c\to J/\psi\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ decays, respectively, we study possible R-parity violating…
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…
We investigate the $\Lambda_c \to \Lambda \ell^{+} \nu_\ell$ decay with a focus on potential new physics (NP) effects in the $\ell = \mu$ channel. We employ an effective Hamiltonian within the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field…
Using new experimental data on photoproduction and $\Lambda_b^0$ decays, we derive constraints on the properties of the LHCb $P_c$ states. We conclude that $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4440)$ can be described as $\Sigma_c\bar D$,…
