Recently, several hints of lepton non-universality have been observed in the semileptonic B meson decays in terms of both in the neutral current ($b\to s l \bar{l}$) and charged current ($b\to c l \bar{\nu_{l}}$) transitions. Motivated by…

We employ OPE techniques within HQET to calculate the inclusive semileptonic decays of polarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons. Lepton mass effects are included which enables us to also discuss rates into polarized $\tau$-leptons. We present explicit…

We systematically study the semileptonic decays of ${\bf B_c} \to {\bf B_n}\ell^+ \nu_{\ell}$ in the light-front constituent quark model, where ${\bf B_c}$ represent the anti-triplet charmed baryons of $(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$ and…

The $\Xi_c^0$ baryon is unstable and usually decays into charmless final states by the $c \to s u\overline{d}$ transition. It can, however, also disintegrate into a $\pi^-$ meson and a $\Lambda_c^+$ baryon via $s$ quark decay or via $cs\to…

The physics potential for $b$-baryon decays has been relatively unexplored until the advent of the LHC, and as such important questions still exist about their fundamental properties, such as whether their decays exhibit $C\!P$ violation.…
