Form factors of the rare $\Lambda_{b}(\Lambda_{b}^*)\to N\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ decays are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules by taking into account of the contributions from the negative parity baryons. Using the…
The photoleptonic decay $B^-\to \gamma \ell^-\bar{\nu}$ is the simplest low-energy process that probes the substructure of the $B$ meson, making it an excellent candidate to determine the parameters of $B$-meson light-cone distribution…
We investigate the purely non-factorizable $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\to\Xi^{0}K^{+}$ decay using light-cone sum rules. To extract the decay amplitudes, a three-point correlation function is defined and calculated at hadron and quark-gluon level,…
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…
The branching fraction of the $B \to K\ell^+\ell^-$ decay has been measured recently by the LHC experiments, showing a deviation from theory predictions based on the Standard Model (SM). A major challenge in achieving a complete SM…

In this work, we perform a analysis of semi-leptonic and nonleptonic weak decays of heavy baryons: $\Lambda_{b},\Xi_{b},\Omega_{b}$ and $\Lambda_{c},\Xi_{c},\Omega_{c}$. For nonleptonic decay modes, we study only the factorizable channels…
We calculate the semi-leptonic decays of $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ baryons which involve transitions of a heavy quark to a light quark. In a previous work we used data on the Cabibbo favoured non-leptonic decays of charmed baryons…
