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…

This work presents the search for the semileptonic baryonic B decay $B^- \rightarrow \Lambda_c^+ \bar{p} \ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$. The used data comprises the complete BABAR data set of $470 \cdot 10^{6}$ $B\bar{B}$ events, collected at the…
We investigate the semileptonic decays $\Lambda_{b} \to \Lambda_{c} \ell^- \bar{\nu}_\ell$ (with $\ell = e, \mu, \tau$) within the framework of perturbative QCD (pQCD). The six independent $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c$ transition form factors…
This paper describes the angular distribution of $\Lambda_b^0\to \Lambda(\to pK^-)\ell^+\ell^-$ decays. A full expression is given for the case of multiple interfering spin-states with spin $\leq \tfrac{5}{2}$. This distribution is relevant…
After incorporating all the available experimental data and the most up-to-date Lattice and light cone sum rule (LCSR) inputs on the form factors, we analyze the exclusive $b\to u\ell\nu_{\ell}$ and $b\to d\ell \ell$ decays simultaneously.…
Recently, several indications of lepton non-universality observables have been perceived in semileptonic $B$ meson decay processes, both in the neutral-current ($b \to s ll $) and charged-current ($b \to c l \bar \nu_l$) transitions.…
The pseudoscalar decays into lepton pairs $P\rightarrow\overline{\ell}\ell$ are analyzed with the machinery of Canterbury approximants, an extension of Pad\'e approximants to bivariate functions. This framework provides an ideal…
We systematically revisit the baryonic four-body semileptonic decays of $B^- \to {\bf B}\bar{\bf B}'\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ by the perturbative QCD counting rules with ${\bf B}$ representing octet baryons and $\ell=e,\mu$. We study the…
A comprehensive study of the angular distributions in the bottom-baryon decays $\it{\Lambda}^\mathrm{0}_b\to\it{\Lambda}_c^+ h^-(h=\pi, K)$, followed by $\it{\Lambda}_c^+\to\it{\Lambda} h^+$ with $\it{\Lambda}\to \it{p} \pi^-$ or…
The rare $B \to K^{(*)} \bar{\ell} \ell$ decays exhibit a long-standing tension with Standard Model (SM) predictions, which can be attributed to a lepton-universal short-distance $b \to s \bar{\ell} \ell$ interaction. We present two novel…
In the Standard Model, the photon emitted in b->s\gamma decays is predicted to be left-handed polarized. We discuss the types of New Physics which can produce a deviation from this prediction, focusing on the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard…

We study the rare decays of $B_{s} \to M_s\ell \bar{\ell}$ ($M_s=\eta, \eta',\phi$ and $\ell=\nu,e,\mu,\tau$) in the standard model. With the hadronic form factors evaluated in the light front and constituent quark models, we estimate the…
At LHC a large number of b-flavored baryons will be produced. In this note we propose new baryon modes to determine the photon helicity of the penguin transition $b \to s \gamma$. The decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ has the drawback…
We comment on a recent suggestion by Amundson, Rosner, Worah and Wise to test the chirality of the $b$-quark decay coupling via polarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons produced in $e^+e^-\rightarrow Z\rightarrow \Lambda_b +X$. We study the effect of…
